BMW cars offer unmatched driving pleasure and luxury and are considered as the drivers' cars among the luxury Marques. While it is a pleasure to buy and own a BMW, many owners, especially those who choose the pre-owned model route, have a nagging fear of heavy service and maintenance bills, which hung like a black cloud and force many to babysit the car, and thus not enjoying the car to its fullest potential.

BSI – Your FRIEND in Need

There are different BSI packages covering different aspects of the car, and for different time spans, so you can always find a plan that suits your style, pocket and your car.
