- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors, having assessed the responses to their enquiries of the directors of the company's parent, BMW (UK) Limited, have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the ability of BMW Group to continue as a going concern or its ability to continue with the current banking arrangements.”
Significant events
- “On 9 April 2025, the company confirmed that the aftersales facility in Battersea would cease trading on 30 June 2025. From this date, the company will continue to provide service and maintenance services to its customers from its aftersales facility in Park Royal. The closure is likely to reduce revenue by less than 5%.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
