I know a lot of us live in the new forest so this will be a welcome addition to us and bmw apparently bmw ar opening a workshop and showroom in Brockenhurst
 
Wow, Brockenhurst isn’t that big, wonder where it’ll be. Also thought BMW had a one branch per county rule.
 
Only other showroom in the village now would be the Honda place.

The workshop / secondhand car place near Waters Green wouldn't be suitable.

I'd think it's unlikely BMW would locate in Brock.

This is not the 1st of April just wait and see

There is some commercial space that's coming up for sale soon but I'd still be very surprised if BMW located in the village.

If it's a wind up, well done.
 
Answering my own questions now but... been rumoured for a while that Balmer Lawn Honda could be closing and considering they already own the RE dealer next door... Who knows.

Now your thinking in the right direction let’s see in a few weeks
 
I’m sure the previous rumour of a combined BMW car/Motorad dealer in BCP would have made sense but Brock isn’t very far away.
 
Seems an odd place to have a BMW dealer (no offence to those in the New Forest, I grew up there). Still leaves no Motorrad dealers in the Dorset/Wiltshire/Somerset area, that CW’s of Dorchester used to cover. I’d have thought BMW would want to fill that huge triangle gap, from Ocean Plymouth to Dick Lovett Bristol to Bahnstormer’s Alton.
 
Well, looks like Balmer Lawn have lost the Honda franchise in Brock so they'll need to do something with the site.

With the Foresters about to become a gastro pub in June, it's all going downhill. :D

Swindon would be a good option as Dick Lovett BMW (Cars) are already there and it's along the M4 corridor between Bristol and Maidenhead
 
BMW in Brockenhurst

I will look forward to a BMW motorcycle dealership in Brockenhurst I lived there for 20 years 1960 - 80 and in those days there was not even a fish and chip shop in the village .Balmer Lawn was on my paper round Sadly I could not afford to stay there after the property prices in the area rocketed the big money moved in and the locals had to move out

Not a lot has changed brock is still without a fish and chip shop
 
Spoke to them today as due service next month. Workshop in place and technicians recruited, still waiting for some of BMW specialist equipment, showroom under refurbishment so moving along, be nice to see what it all looks like when done. Update on chip availability, Rainbow fish bar is virtually next door so good there, sure there must be a good coffee to be had somewhere along with the obligatory bacon style breakfast.
