P.U.D.

Well firstly I would just like to say.....I am sick to death of reading about every 1M owner's joys and pleasure's at the wheel of their M's, I am sick to death of reading all the positive press reports and Jeremy Clarkson's love of the steroid enhanced little beast, and I am sick to death of the endless pictures I have had to endure for the past 6 months..........................................


Well enough is enough!





After 5 months of serious waiting time, It's finally PICK UP DAY as I take delivery of my first ever BMW!

T minus 7hrs and counting!


I just now hope for my own sake it's all that you lot have made it out to be, or it will be hurt locker time

It is an absolute hoot on the track and an addictive plaything on your favorite twisty back road. "

LOL ..... I expect you might upchuck with your excitement and maybe even have weak legs when you see her and start her up for the first time ..... I assure you that your sickness will turn into a grin that you can't get off your face when you finally lay to rest tonight ...... have loads of fun and be sure to add to the sickening posts of pictures and editorials with your own .... we will all be here waiting so we can re-live our own sickness all over again with you!!!!

Actually, everyone on here has been joking around. The car isn't really all that special. You will likely be very let down but it's time someone told you.

Thanks guys for setting me straight on the hard core facts/lies/deception/myths/hogwash...

But if it's all ridgy-didge on the night then there will be a fight over the fob no doubt tonight with the wife, and again tomorrow morning when we drive to Cardiff (go the wallabies), but saying all that, I haven't laid eyes on a 1M since early July (other than the many pics on here) so we shall see lol

Don't mess with his emotions. He was just accepting the fact that this excitement (and surely a lack of sleep last night) is really all for nothing!

I did happen to watch last night a replay of Clarkson's drive just to see if it was some sort of conspiracy and his opinion was purchased for a hefty sum!
