Wow, so much for the limited to 100, then 200, models then.

Awesome result for Australia though.

Hey Guys,

What wheels fit the 1M?
I'm looking at getting a 2nd set of rim/tyres for track days and not sure what options are out there. I'm not after anything fancy. I was thinking 18" as rubber would be easier to come by.

Do the 261 wheels fit on the 1M? I have a set of 19" wheels forsale currently but if they fit on the 1M i may just end up using them for the track.

any thoughts?

Cheers
Ian

Yep they fit! They are pretty light weight and 18" tyres are a hell of a lot cheaper.

Had mine for almost a year now. Picked them up for a AU$1600 landed or so from a guy in the US forum. Came with the original PS2s with 90% tread.

Best track day investment! With some Advan A050s from Vans!

Cause for concern?

Hi Guys,

Wondering if any of you would have some insights into the following:

I was lucky enough to get an allocation for a 1 M in April and have been tracking delivery since on w2global.

w2global states that my car arrived 31/7 at Fremantle on the "Grand Mercury" and was "delivered from" Fremantle on 7/8.

Have asked the dealer ~ 3 times on whether they have my car since the 7/8 in which they said they have not.

I actually also purchased a Z4 which we received last month where w2global stated it was delivered from Fremantle on 25/7 and we took delivery on 26/7.

I have emailed the dealer about my cause for concern this morning in which I have not received a response.

Anyone here have an idea why my 1 M has gone missing since 7/8?

Anybody on this forum from the eastern states have had their cars already delivered that was on the Grand Mercury?

Many thanks in advance...

Cheers

Hi Zhi,

I think something is very fishy about your order as mine was on the same boat Grand Mercury and I got mine delivered this afternoon.

Hope you get yours sorted out soon.

Nah joking, I would front them F2F armed with what Quang said re his delivery and demand a response.

Zhi,
Here's the ship's schedule:
BREMERHAVEN GERMANY 22/06/2012 23/06/2012
ZEEBRUGGE BELGIUM 24/06/2012 25/06/2012
SOUTHAMPTON UNITED KINGDOM 28/06/2012 28/06/2012
DURBAN SOUTH AFRICA 16/07/2012 16/07/2012
REUNION ISLE STDENIS REUNION 20/07/2012 22/07/2012
FREMANTLE AUSTRALIA 31/07/2012 31/07/2012
MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA 04/08/2012 05/08/2012
PORT KEMBLA AUSTRALIA 06/08/2012 07/08/2012
BRISBANE AUSTRALIA 08/08/2012 09/08/2012

and here's the log for my car:
DELIVERED FROM PORT KEMBLA 10-08-2012 18:00:00 1
DISCHARGED PORT KEMBLA 07-08-2012 00:00:00 1
LINER RELEASE PORT KEMBLA 31-07-2012 11:04:06
LOADED ON VESSEL BREMERHAVEN 23-06-2012 20:25:00 1
RECEIVED AT TERMINAL BREMERHAVEN 23-06-2012 20:24:00 1
BOOKED BREMEN 20-06-2012 17:00:49 1

So it took 11 days since the car came off Port Kembla to delivery this afternoon. Mind you, I know my sale rep well and he pushed for the car to be ready for delivery asap. It's good to have a decent relationship with your dealer.

Hope that helps. I hope your dealer has a good and reasonable explanation for you.
Quang

Thanks 1MOz, Alpine, Ian...

Good to know then that you did have a delay between delivery from the port to delivery at the dealer. Guess I was thrown off from the fact that the Z4 that got delivered last month, there was only a 1 day delay.

My 1 M would be the first 1 M delivered at the dealer, was concerned one of their staff went for a joy ride and damaged the car somehow.

Will await their response tomorrow or will pay them a visit.

Actually attending the BMW Aus track day tomorrow at Barbagallo's... anyone here going?

How do you get an invite?
I'm assuming it's buy more cars.
