Initial thoughts, love the MMM button and brakes and likely to need a track to fully appreciate it.(Might have a fine already though!) I dont so much have the urge to drive it but to keep looking at it! 8 months is a long time. Recently been thinking that purchasing sight unseen and un-anything else since with the likelihood of it being superseeded prior to arrival, was such a smart move. - Thought gone! |

Lucky was wet today down ramp to freeway , 3rd gear , big squeeze in M mode. Lucky have TC all intact. Car went massively lost traction. Just electronic to save it but it pushes the car 4 wheel drift to the other line. Scary at 140 kmh

Thanks guys.
Silly question but is the car supposed to come with a Supplementary Owners Manual for the 1M or just the standard 1 series Manual? I was told there is no 1M manual. |

1M Insurance
Well, our 1M and CR are both up for insurance renewals, we have the option of our policy to continue with the 24 month new car replacement policies.
Sounds, like a plan to me! But hang on, if they cannot find a replacement new car the policy then reverts to the agreed value, hmmm $87k on the 1M, not good. Anyone else have this problem? Increase the agreed value and hence an increased policy cost? |

Welcome back, taka.
In those circumstances with TC disabled, I wonder whether the vehicle would even have made it to 40km/h in the wet. Have had my confidence shattered multiple times in this little monster - no fun spinning out 270o as the crowd just stares in disbelief |
