I hate the 1M

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
for making me go out every day to drive around without any other purpose than to drive the lovely car… ;-)

Would be cool to hear your stories as you probably do the same thing all the time… ;-)

This car is like a drug. You want to drive it, improve the apperance, tune it... I hate it for that but at the same time love it more than anything…

Hate only leads to pain, seek help: Time for a 1M anonymous group.

"My name is hybris4u, and I have only loved my 1M for 2 months now": applause!

A1MA? - Anonymous 1M Addicts?

I vote Einser M and Powerbeast for President and Vice President!

Think I will need to start as a "hang around" due to my limited tuning so far... ;-)

Hi. My name is A. and I just returned from IKEA with stuff that was not too big for the 1M boot. Visiting IKEA was only an excuse to go for a drive with my 1M. I failed to resist making a detour on the way back home, again, trashing expensive 98 RON fuel (± €2 per liter) and emitting extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere for no legitimate reason during approx. 1 hour.
Sorry that I let you all down ...again.

Hi. My name is O. I have a problem. My wife is jealous because of my 1M and she might be right to be so because no time I spend with the 1M seem to be enough. I took a cab to reach here...which made me feel like crying.

Hello, my name is B. I thought I could just feel the steering wheel and let it idle for a few minutes. I will not be able to make it to the meeting. I'll try to call in again next time!

Tell your wife she needs to be more dirty, and then you'll spend more time with her ?

"Doing donuts at Cars & Coffee", dang, group session member D., using those compulsive behavior inducing words, just when we all try to cope with the "1M cold engine syndrome", um, sorry group, I meant "1M cold turkey syndrome" ...SNAP... where did my wife hide my key fob, where is it, where is it, I need it badly...

Sorry Dan, no donuts as they are this thread's gateway food. Artemis has relapsed by the mere mention of them.

My name is S and I was up at 0530 cleaning my 1M which was covered in brake dust and bug guts from last weeks Ring trip.......... 0530 in the morning is crazy I hear you say! Well the truth is, we are in the mists of a drought in many parts of the UK, no joke and that means a hose pipe ban, so the means to my madness, at stupid o'clock on a Sunday morning no one is up to see me use a hose all while it is raining outside, but that didn't stop me getting the M all clean and offering to drive the wife to the library to study.....Now the 1M is in need of another clean but the drive was sure well worth it

Garage List
'11 BMW 1M  [0.00]
'13 Audi TT-RS  [0.00]
'11 BMW X3 35i MSport  [0.00]
'07 Audi RS4  [0.00]
When I am not driving the 1M on one of many objectiveless missions, I am shopping for/purchasing thousands of $ in BMW performance accessories and a new midpipe. I am not sure of which to me more ashamed.

Dear A1MA friends,

I have to come clean. Today I did test a stronger drug. I did test the "DSC OFF"!!! Oooops! It was very funny and lot of laughs and smiles... But that drug was not good at all. I have a feeling it will bite me hard sometime in the future... How do I get back to "MDM" only mode? Help!!! Don't push that button for to long time! Not good for you!

I should change my name to "Hybris4me" ;-)

Welcome, S.

Nice meeting you here too during the 1M therapy sessions.
