Another Order Placed!!!
New to the forum, recognise a few of you guys from other "lesser" forums!
Order placed over the weekend for a new 135i, specs: Alpine white Roof Heated seats Navigation 10 Speaker Hi Fi September (hopefully) delivery, very hard to get a car this year. According to the dealer the 135 is THE most popular of the new coupe/convertible range. Still have to book a test drive after two weeks since their launch, AMAZING. |

More eager buyers spells good news for BMW and me....
I'm kind of hoping there is reasonable wait (at least until Jan 08) when I first test drive the 135i in two weeks. If the test drive is anything like the "test ride" at Doncaster BMWs launch, I'll probably end up placing an order but I'd prefer to not hand over the cash until next year and then have kept my 120i for at least 4 years. That said, after four years on having a 1er, moving to another 1er (with basically the same look and definitely the same interior) kind of worries me. But can't think of anything that'd be as good. I'll look, but given I've only driven BMWs..... |

Another one!
Hi there, just came across this forum, and pleased to see I'm not the only one counting the days until delivery. Ordered late April, and due for delivery late August. Had my first drive last weekend and it is everything I hoped for and more... Does anyone know how long the wait is for cars ordered now?

Welcome Alpine, welcome BlackSapphire! Great to have a couple more Aussies on the forum.
As far as I know, those ordering now are having to wait until November. I feel sorry for 'em!

A Long wait indeed and it's probably going to get longer by the looks of it. What happens when we fill up the 800 1 series dealer allocations for this year?

Yeh I went to the dealer on Saturday to finalise my order (switched back to AW from SGM as well). He said the 135 Coupe is experiencing very high demand and orders already go out to November/December delivery.
How many 135s does Australia get in the first year? 200? |

Congratulations guys and welcome to the Aussie forum. Don't forget to vote in the polls - which state you're from and what model 1er you're getting.
Alpine, I think you are our first ACT 1er ;-)

I sold the S3. the MCS wouldn't move, absolutely no interest. I advertised the S3 online and had a local guy call the next day, a week later it was gone. Wanted to keep the S3 till Jan and pickup a 135 then but anyway soon as the S went we went shopping.
Had huge trouble getting one in Canberra, they had to go back to BMW for another car else it was a Jan 09 build! The dealer bent over backwards, it helps I guess when you have already brought 3 coupes and a Mini from them in the past 7 years and only picked up the M () a month or so ago. The garage will look absoulutely awesome when we the 135i arrives, two AW BM's sitting happily together, hopefully they will become friends. Cheers Guys |
