We're guaranteed to get ours from Germanland because we all know how the Germans* like to rape other European countries of their money and they'd never let a sale go to SA that they could take themselves.
*the thieving scum in charge obviously, not the people

The Euro is a devalued currency in comparison to the DMark and it perfectly suits the German export driven economy. If they still had the DMark (they don't want it), their goods would be too expensive and would not sell, especially if they were manufactured in Germany. In fact, it really helps BMW to have factories in low labour cost countries like SA. They still sell the cars at the same price as the German manufactured ones. Japan and Korea do the same. They are all at it. That's business.

Just had an email from my Dealer..quote: 'Your car is built and about to leave the factory' Having also just spoken to BMW CS - who was initially giving me a load of codswalop - after which I twisted his arm and him having refreshed his screen miraculously confirmed the following: 1. System Code was 9000 Departed Plant then changed to 6000 Transfer to Distribution as we spoke! 2. Shipping from factory to the UK will take approx 5-10 days. 3. Transfer from Port to S Yorkshire (Thorne) BMW Storage and Quality Control (apparently for stringent quality checks for all BMW's entering the UK) to take approx 2-3 Days. 4. Transfer from S Yorkshire to Dealership and final checks 2-3 Days. He said if things go to plan I should have the car in a fortnight. Lets see..

Booo, When I am fed up after a long business trip, trying to find the car in the Stansted airport car park, usually at night in the rain I was hoping I could remotely flash the lights.....seeing it happy to see me would lift the spirits |

How did that happen? I called Knights an asked for my log in details and they said I had to do it all online and they couldn't do it for me - something about security and the login being unique to me (?)

If it really left the production line a month ago you should have had it by now!! Did you contact BMW Customer Services? I would also speak to the Dealer Principle directly...time to put your foot down.

http://www.bmw.co.uk/bmwuk/connected...312___,00.html You will need your VIN and REG details, your car must be in the UK before they will accept your application. Once accepted they will text you your on-line username and password..
