my aw 1m

edwardio · 06-24-2011, 06:47 PM

hey there everyone...just wanted to share a few pics of my 1M..picked her up this morning and have had a complete blast all day and night.started the process of racking up the miles and decided to take a drive to stonehenge.i noticed a fellow 1m pilot did that before in his vo 1M,so i thought what the hell.
completed 300 miles today,albeit in the pouring rain and all i have to say is havnt stopped smiling since.talk about a baptism of fire

...put your foot down in the wet and you know it...never had a beemer before or even driven a rear wheel drive motor before..what a blast.
apologies for the lack of any technical stuff as one is totally done for the evening..but putting it simply, the hk stereo is banging,lumbar support is quality,the sound inside is menacing,the turbos are just plain stupidly awsome..the whole god damn car is great

.
hope you like the pics, not a great camera or anything !!
all i know is that you will not be disappointed with your 1M..its definately worth the wait and am looking forward to tomorrow already.
until next time

Congrats Edwardio!!!

I posted earlier on my iPhone, but seems to have disappeared!
That was me who took photos in front of Stone Henge with my orange Baby.

I'm living very near you now, would be good to meet up. Would love to see an other 1M on the road.
