Is that yours Gazz? Surely it is? What a friggin awesome photo, like these cars are like female dodos, to see one on a truck, and it's prolly Gazz's what are the odds?

By the way, my dealer told me they have BMW trackers installed, so theft is prolly a bad idea guys

Oh you sweet thing...

Where was the photo taken? When?

130iguy · 05-26-2011, 02:09 AM

not sure exactly where on the gold coast (was taken by a mate) and it was definitely today

ol'mate · 05-26-2011, 02:28 AM

Ah we're an annoying bunch us 130i drivers, aren't we gazz. hehe

That's it. Just back from Lyntons after they rang me to say it's here. It's crammed into the workshop so all I got to do was see it close up and have a sit in it. First impressions - looks great in white, shows off all the M features of the car with the way highlights and shadows play over the contours. Looking at pictures I always thought that the wheels seemed too big for the car's proportions, almost comically so. However in person they definitely fit in with the character of the car. Interior - I must admit that I was prepared to be a little disappointed going by other posts mentioning how plain the interior is, especially going from my full specced 335i. Well at first impression I am pleasantly surprised, I like it. I immediately felt comfortable in the cabin. Peddle position is way better than a manual M3. Perfectly set for heel and toe, a big thing with me. Gearbox throws are a tad long but I prefer that to having to reach further to a short shifter. Umm what else...oh yes, they are not too happy with me leaving four rotwelllers stationed around the car till it's ready on Tuesday morning. Got a dinner on tonight so catcha.

Lovely, glad you're happy with it! Have fun at your dinner event... try not to mention the 1M too much eh

I can confirm that. I saw it myself. Or rather it was pointed out to me when I tried driving the car off.

On an open transporter?

Looks nice though!
