First LMB 135i in WA

BMWDave · 07-01-2008, 06:13 AM

Hi all
Well, today was the day

It was a bit dark by the time I got home but here is the first few pics i've managed.

What can I say. I love it:wub:. Can't wait to see the LMB in its full sun light glory.

Cheers!
Dave

aus_buster · 07-01-2008, 04:41 PM

jcw2006aus · 07-01-2008, 07:08 PM

Awesome and congrats, Dave good to see another on Perth streets, might see you around!

Nice number plate, how did you go about getting that...

Bim135AUS · 07-01-2008, 08:45 PM

Nice one Dave- I always thought that the blue looks great in a 135

BMWDave · 07-02-2008, 06:51 AM

Thanks all for your kind words. I've had the windows tinted today so look for some more photos later this week (need to finish work at a reasonable time in order to see daylight).

jcw2006aus - i ordered the europlates before i bought the car. Then, i gave autoclassic a letter to pick them up on my behalf when they registered my car (i had to have paid for it at this point). It's my initals and birthday, with the first W and last Z unmovable at the price bracket I paid for tem.

oh and everyone else, that's actually my dad getting out of the pathfinder having followed me back from the dealer :smile:

WAY · 07-02-2008, 07:48 AM

The more I see this colour the more I like it! Congrats!

Guran · 07-02-2008, 03:22 PM

Congrats Dave! A colleague at work will be taking delivery of a LMB 135i in August. I'm sure he'll be keen to see photos of yours.

G'day Dave - lovely car! I should be getting mine soon...the boat has just left Port Kembla....due to arrive Freo next Wednesday.

How long did it take from when your car arrived in Freo to when you picked it up from Autoclassic?

Wraith · 07-02-2008, 07:24 PM

Wow, that's gorgeous

Enjoy your new car...

I'm not normally a fan of blue coloured cars, but I must say, this one makes me feel differently :smile:

Actually amk2912, there was a massive debarkle with mine as my boat skipped freo all together and went straight to melbourne. My car was actually complianced in melb then trucked back to Perth with urgent priority. Usually the turn around is about two weeks though from warf to dealer. May have improved now that several 1 coupe/convert's have passed through compliancing.
