    Any good repair shops in Indianapolis?

    We are new to the area and I was wondering if anyone knows of a good BMW shop to take our E30s to? I hate having to go to the shops that only work on the new ones and make you feel weird when you come in with an older model (and not to mention they are usually ridiculously expensive) If anyone knows somewhere we can trust let me know. Thanks.

      And also, if you don't want to pay the shop rate, I would work on the car at my place too for half of what the shop charges. As long as I dont need a press or something like that. I could use a little side work...

        Reggie's motorworks in Westfield. We actually work more or less exclusively on e30s and other classic BMWs. Also Euromotorwerks in Fishers does very good work, but they can be a bit expensive.

          Thanks both you guys. I will keep all of them in mind. Thankfully I was able to fix the problem myself thanks to some help from on here. My car is really not liking this weather. I would be happy if it just gets out of freezing temps. I looked online at Reggie's, but I thought it was just a parts place. You work on them too? Thats great. I love E30 shops. Thanks again.

            Yes, we work on them too:)

            I'll look forward to meeting you! We'll be hosting a clearance sale at the shop on January 30th (Saturday), but it'll also be somewhat of a open house with refreshments and (hopefully) a nice gathering of local enthusiasts.

                Vaughn is the club tech place, and good peoples there. I've had a few things done there over the years. Also, Northwest Frame is just north of there in Zionsville and Aaron knows BMWs and E30s well to help with alignment, etc. and obviously work after an accident. If you ever bend a wheel, go there.

                But since Reggie opened up, I've send the majority of work I haven't done myself to him and he does specialize in E30s.

                I'll try to make it up there Reg.
