ayao · 07-16-2014, 11:46 PM

Did anyone else receive one of these recently?

I got one in the mail last week. Goofy but a nice gesture nonetheless.

How many years do you have to wait?

Naoto · 07-17-2014, 06:14 AM

i got one last week

NiceGuyEddie · 07-17-2014, 07:39 AM

Using mine now. Looks kind of cool, but sucks as a writing instrument.

Harlequin · 07-17-2014, 08:47 AM

Want one. Shame this stuff never makes it to Aus...

Bama335 · 07-17-2014, 09:03 AM

I got one last week as well - it was approx 1 yr after getting the 135is

mike@x-ph.com · 07-17-2014, 12:28 PM

Did not receive mine

mrphil · 07-17-2014, 02:18 PM

We get nothing here either

m3dragon · 07-17-2014, 04:40 PM

got mine.

I think these were left over from when Bangle was there. FAIL

Harlequin · 07-17-2014, 08:48 PM

Anyone wanna sell me one??

getmetnow · 07-18-2014, 07:22 AM

I got mine as well.

JM35 · 07-18-2014, 08:18 AM

Have 2 bmw's and I didn't get one...one for 3 years and one for 3 months

Harlequin · 07-19-2014, 04:54 AM

Bought one on eBay... More expensive than I would have liked but want one... Seems that some people don't mind turning a quick profit...

1978.530i · 07-19-2014, 02:48 PM

Got mine last week.

IEDEI · 07-19-2014, 02:49 PM

i want one of these pens. WTF BMW!! I have got 2 different BMWs in the last 12 months. I guess they don't count buying a used 1M and leasing a 135is perhaps?

ajshanny · 07-21-2014, 08:59 AM

I threw mine in the trash bin.

DooBs · 07-22-2014, 12:27 AM

Received one too. Looks bit odd, but interesting design. Wish there was no blue but all cf. Gloss black metal instead of the silver with bmw in chrome or matte black. Nice gesture though. Was a nice surprise

Esteban · 07-22-2014, 02:32 AM

Got the pen plus a book titled "Year One of the 1", a flash drive and a sketch of the 1er for my first 135i.

IEDEI · 07-26-2014, 10:19 AM

I emailed BMW and asked them for this pen and they said "no". lol. they said they will send me one after I've had a BMW for at least 2 years. jackasses. haha

Guess you should have kept the 135is for another year...so you could get a pen.

i used to think Audi were terrible at customer relations....but now i know that BMW are far, far worse. my 135is went up in a pile of steam 60 miles after picking it up.....the least they could do is send me a bloody pen! lol

The worst part was the guy who was writing up your ticket as you brought it back in, was using that pen to write "we forgot to reattach the radiator hose clamp thingy."

I'll sell you mine next May if you want. =P
