Mini GP2

[ace_d_house_cat]

Hey guys,

So I can finally say I have a BMW (sort of). After years of wanting one I picked up my GP2 last week. Here she is:







Although nowhere nearly as fast as my old TTS but I'm extremely happy to be back in a small, fast, capable hatch!

I do have one question though; the bluetooth seems to support phone capability only and I'm unable to play music through it. Can it be programmed to enable music streaming (like VWs with VAGCOMs)?

Awesome cars these congrats. With regards to the bluetooth; if it is anything like typical BMW's you cannot code it unless you have the combox modules. I had the same issue on my F25 and got one of these

Works perfectly and you can skip songs using the car controls (even steering wheel).

If you are using an iphone it will even pass the album art and name of the song as well. If you are using android you won't get that info; but it still works great.

Thanks guys! Really enjoying the urgency that the car has. It really does feel purpose built!

Thanks Danie, I'll look into that.

Not so much a roll cage but front and rear strut bars. I'll get around to taking some more pics this afternoon.

Awesome man. I have some spare chrome key surround if you need. I know they deteriorate over time.

The one on mine has some wear on it. It'd be good to get a new looking one.

How, where and how much? :smilebounce:

CA plates but I've just brought her home (JHB). It's the fourth car in a row I've bought from the Mother City.

Beautiful car and wish you many happy miles and track days :bravo:

Lovely looking car! Wish you many happy kms.

I wonder if the bluetooth streaming is due to the media package with the car. From memory, the display screen was the smaller unit in the GPs. you could send me the last 7 digits of you VIN and I can look into the options online.
