Classic Car News: Bmw To The Rescue

The AA has been referred to by the Daily Mail website as being "Britain's 4th emergency service", so with the expansion of its network of classic car restoration centres, BMW surely earns the title of 5th emergency service?  BMW is taking advice from the Buzz Light-year character in the well known animated film Toy Story, by going to "infiniti and beyond" and ensuring vintage vehicles are getting the TLC they deserve.

Yell.com have reported that "anybody who drives a BMW will tell you that what is most special about them is that they can go from smooth and supple executive cars to bare-knuckle animals with a little twitch of one's right foot", which is why they merit the care and attention that BMW are offering.

The unique centres will work under the name of "Classic Centres, and be set up in the same way as BMW's Historic Workshop", which currently maintains the factory's own classic car collection and holds around 30,000 components for Historic BMW cars and motorbikes, according to AutoCar.com.

Classic motors need that little extra love and affection, which BMW have realised, leading them to opening its classic centres, putting millions of classic car owners minds at rest. BMW truly are coming to the rescue, with an "army of experts who can fix and restore vintage Beemer's with the company's original parts", reports Yell.com.

BMW's classic specialist centres will not only be repairing and restoring its own classic vehicles, but also those belonging to customers. With the growing number of people who own a classic BMW that date back to earlier decades, "the number of cars bearing the notorious blue and white badge is estimated at around 600,000", according to GermanCar Scene.com.

"The centres are an essential component of the re-establishment of BMW classics and of our customer focus on the classic market", says Karl Baumer, Director of BMW Group Classic.

If the classic restoration project goes ahead, BMW could end up being the people's fairy godmother - transporting you back to the 1960's and surrounding you with hundreds of vintage vehicles restored to their original glory?

Can I use a standard storage unit to work on my car?

I have a classic car that needs restoration and the family garage is way too small. I need a space to work on it. Do most storage companies allow it?

some do. Call around to the places close to your home. Alot of times they do not have electricity available, which will be important for lights, etc.
