Picked up a brand new VO 1M

Jaw_F430 · 07-04-2012, 02:20 PM

When I was looking for a 1M in Feb I couldn't find a new one anywhere. I missed one by about an hour and ended up buying a 6 month old one.

Well thanks to a member on here I managed to get hold of a brand new VO 1M and took delivery last Friday. I pxd my current 1M (yes I think I'm a bit mad

) but I plan on keeping this car for a while as they are awesome. Could this by the last 1M registered in the UK?

Some pics

Good.

Did you ask for the black kidneys and mirror caps or did the dealership throw that in for you ?

1M Roo · 07-04-2012, 02:51 PM

You are welcome chap, good dealer, should pick up my new 640d Gran Coupe from there next saturday!

Car looks lovely. Good story - having 2 1M's in 6 months. I was the guy that beat you to the 1st one remember! Can I ask, once you'd bought 1, what was it that really made you want to get into a new one?

Congrats! If I hadn't bought new I may just have changed to a different colour this year!

Wow, that looks great. How comes its never been sold until now?

I bet there's a couple of new ones floating about somewhere though.

Did you get a good p/ex figure for your old one?

They were already on the car, I have the originals in boxes. Was not too sure on the carbon mirrors at first but they are growing on me. I like the black grills though

Yes they do seem to be a good dealer. I was looking around the M3 Frozen Edition they have on display, its quite nice in the flesh

Congrats on the 640

I was happy with the px price.

Not managed to get the xpel film done yet though as paintshield are booked up until the 16th July!! Seem very popular

The car has been held at the dealer due to the guy who ordered it becoming ill and could not take delivery, so it has sat there unregistered since April

Nice one, now get some miles on that baby

Well done mate. I see you've put your name down for Wales, hopefully you can get your running in completed by then!

Lord Hemming · 07-04-2012, 06:44 PM

Well done mate, I dig the grills and mirrors, looks great!

Denso · 07-05-2012, 06:57 AM

Nice, now get the carbon spoiler on the back with CRT paint lip and job done. Enjoy
