Who has ordered a 1M?

sparoz · 09-01-2011, 05:29 AM

I am pretty sure M cars first service is complimentary?

alik01 · 09-01-2011, 06:04 AM

Mine was free. No Corporate Program - was told it was not available on M cars.

Sounds like this is the one thing the dealer got right.

Got EPP on my mine though.

okay thanks guys, i will have to rain down my own shit storm tomorrow, so far sylvania have been absolutely useless, they are an embarrassment, i cannot believe bmw does not audit their dealers, i feel sorry for the poor customer who bought the other 1M off them before me and has not had the service done.

Will have to ring them and ask them. The dealer emailed that the application was unsuccessful and I called BMW Corporate directly and they said it wasn't available on M cars.

To be clear this is the 4 years free service thing, right?

Yes, the four years servicing. Certainly got the first for free.

Not news to anyone here, but BMW Australia yesterday released official word on the 1M for our market, including 24 new pics.

Check them out on AUSmotive -> http://ausm.tv/ue

There's also a full detailed press kit available for download.

Agree. I was told by my sales rep at BMW Sydney that the 2000k service is FOC.

hahahahah. Bullsh1t!

I had EPP on my M3 and we have it on our 1M. Evidenced by the fact that:

I never paid for a service on my M3 and always got a high end demo model car as a loaner
the 1M 2k service was N/C
we have been told that we get the 3 (or is it 4) years free servicing on the 1M
we got mats included in both cars (no cost items as they are included with EPP)
we had to provide proof of employment and entitlement to the EPP at purchase time

some dealers are sooooo FOS or know sh1t

Yeah, my dealer was chasing me up with the EPP letter so that I can get the above. As far as I know the thing you don't' get with M cars is special pricing, but you still get the extra year warranty and free servicing.

BTW, you don't have to work for a company to get a EPP - they can extended to their clients that's how I got mine.

I can't believe some of this Dealer propaganda!

For EPP People: We bought our 1M in BMW Melbourne, the first service (2000ks) was booked in at Rolfe BMW in Canberra and it was NO COST
not one question asked nor was there any doubt that we were covered under the EPP.

Without EPP, I would still think this is a freebie, I recall that M3s get their first one free, @1500ks. So why not the 1Ms??

alik01 · 09-02-2011, 04:35 AM

Thanks for the info Alpine & Sparoz - I will call BMW Corporate on Monday and ask them what's happening. They said no M cars when I called then directly after the dealer said the application was rejected.

I submitted the forms to enroll my company in it. We have a few toys in our fleet and over 40 cars in total - so I know we qualify. We already have AudiCorporate & have acceptance from Merc. Why is BMW Aus such a bunch of retards?

Beemer, the dealer is Dwyers BMW in Wollongong. Only thing they did right was the service...

Did you double check what oil the put in your car?

alik01 · 09-02-2011, 05:05 AM

Sparoz, I told them to get the oils right before the service - I will call them on that too. Starting to get really annoyed with them now.
