Just popping to say hey guys....

Had a 123D and just bought a 2013 135i, Alpine white with 17k on the clock. Hoping to pick it up today/Wednesday. Slight hiccup the dealer prepped the car etc then the engine management light came on so they are looking into that before I take delivery. Just hope it isn't a sign of things to come as really looking forward to getting hold of it. From my research on here I shouldn't have to many worries just now so fingers crossed.

I'm in NE Lincs if we have any local boys

Update on the car, Valvetronic motor has failed....? A little concerned with it only being 2013 and 17k miles. The car is through the AUC scheme and they assure me it has been stock all its life. A few searches have revealed a few others have had this issue but seem to be on the N54 engines. Put a bit of downer on it to be honest but have managed to negotiate a few ££ for the inconvenience.

Apologies if this is in the wrong section.
