I am new to the forums and was just searching through to see how many people are around my area. I just got my car in February and am looking for a good, reasonable mechanic.

Yup, there are a few of us in the area but I'm really the only active e34 person. I live in Raleigh and work in Durham. What work do you need done? More details on the car?

At the moment, most everything it has needed I have done myself. I have a 95 525i, 11/95 olympic edition. So far I have replaced the belts, fuel pump, fuel filter, air filter and spark plugs. I took it in to Shadetree to have the driveshaft rebuilt because it was rattling, luckily it turned out to just be the cv joint. Nothing majored needed right now, I am just seeing where I could go if the work cant be done at home. Shadetree was wonderful, but they have a fairly long wait list.

Check out the guys on the nceuro.org board; they'll hook you up.

I'll be in Chapel Hill this weekend but booked solid.

I can't help you with a mechanic, but perhaps you should consider this meet?

I will post pictures of my car after this weekend, when i can get a few decent ones. Sadly, I wont be able to go to the meet because of classes.
