What if... you were offered a new 1M Coupe from a Dealer

[SP33DYV]

Beautiful man! I don't think you were expecting great consumption though. You using this beaut to work. Shoo. Hehe. Loving it.!

Nope, only drove the car on Thursday because that's when I picked it up from the dealer. And used it on Friday afternoon to go to Zwartkops to pick some one up. She's in the garage at home today.:thumbs:

BTW, stunning in white (not sure if you had a choice in the matter), but really looks nice on the 1M!! :inlove:

Philip, no choice in the matter. It was the absolute last one that was hidden at the Rosslyn factory. I had to take it as is. It was standing at the factory for more than a year. The service indicator said that an oil change was due 06-2012 when we started the engine for the first time. Even the oil temp gauge only started working when I drove the car home on Thursday afternoon. It shot from 0 to 100, but now it works just fine.:thumbs:

You have no idea... I didn't think I was going to get one. I even told my wife that it wasn't going to happen. And then a week later they phoned me and asked if I'm still interested. What a dumb question?:flyfun:

At one stage I had already started looking for an e92WL 4 door M3. I am very lucky that I got this 1M.:thumbs::inlove:

Congrats on your new car. Look after it :rollsmile:

You mentioned it was standing at the factory for about a year? Are there no flatspots on the tyres or anything?
