cullenmin Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Well I decided not to wait on santa coming this year... (He wouldn't fit down the chimney anyway) And I went and bought this... Leather seats, cruise control, super quiet & comfortable motorway cruiser. (I must be getting old ) Please excuse the pics as it was coming down dark after I gave it a quick wash and theres no sun these days to truly show up how immaculate this car truly is Comments and cheeky buggers welcome Rich
uRaBu5 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Looks very nice, what version is it? I take it it’s not the one scoobyian was selling? Derek
RS Grant Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Nice, came with the optional indicators too... usually an unpopular extra for BMWs. To make sure the Traction Control is fully off... Press and Hold the DSC Button until the handbrake light illuminates as well as the DSC light, I think you hold it for 5 seconds. Just a wee tip that will make things more interesting. Cheers, Grant
