    I am looking for a recommendation for any mechanic(s) based in Cork city who in particular have experience / expertise with the older BMW's (E30 in the 3 series - I drive a 1987 BMW 318i). I have used a local mechanic close to my house for some time but have always felt he is a bit on the expensive side (and may not be the most honest) and would prefer to bring my car to someone who has done a deal of work on older BMW's and is not a cowboy.

    Has anyone else used such a mechanic in Cork city? Any recommendations / advice welcome.

    Steve Murphy (pm for number), he's very good and reasonably priced. I wouldn't take mine anywhere else ;)

    Hi jAH.

    Hope she's going okay for you :) I've heard good things about that chap too, so I'd say you'll be in good hands with him.

    I always find it's a good idea to ask around ur local pub for such things.
    I did that for a plumber recently, turned out the guy did a fantastic job and I went to school with him years ago.

    It’s mmw motors, the guy is Steve Murphy, his garage is in the Monahan road industrial estate.

    It’s closed at the moment, so I saw in this thread that people had shared his mobile number, so hopefully it shows up soon!

    Thanks for replying
