Thumbs up My 9-day 135i European Delivery Adventure Film

As featured on 1addicts homepage.

After over a year (!), the film from the european delivery of my Montego Blue 135i has been edited and posted online. It's 23 mins and absolutely hilarious.

There are two versions, the full version, with some NSFW language, and the edited version which isn't as funny but SFW. Watch it in HD if you can.

NSFW VIDEO: http://vimeo.com/4990426
SFW VIDEO: http://vimeo.com/5028367


I originally wrote about the trip, with pics, here: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=214957.

Great video! I picked up my 135 on July 1 2008. Your video brought back many memories. When I drove Passo de Stelvio I didn't ride on the train. Out of the 16 days I spent, 9 were spent criss crossing the Alps. Back and forth from Switzerland to Italy. Aren't you ready to go again? Thanks for sharing...

Thanks for sharing that Max and great job!

We've featured your film on the homepage -- http://www.1addicts.com

That was great fun to watch and I'm sure it makes more than a few people yearn to undertake the european delivery experience.

Hey guys--my name's Ian and I shot this video. Thanks for all the comments! We had a blast on this trip and I had a lot of fun putting this video together.

Yes, we all cannot wait to go back. I just can't imagine buying a European car now without taking advantage of such a program, especially since as long as you have the time to take the trip, it ends up washing to free! I'm drooling over BMWs and Audis now if only for another shot at hitting places we missed the first time! (Flüelapass, Verdon Gorge, the ring...)

And yes, if anyone has ever wondered, ten days half in the back seat of a 1 is a little rough. Actually, it's not as bad as you'd think, but then again I'm only 5'8"! For this trip it was totally worth it.
