1M captured

There are a lot of exterior photos of the BMW 1 series M coupe around but not much has been focused on the little interior details of this special M car that makes it is so much fun and exhilarating, yet comfortable to drive. So I set out today to do a walk-around my car and capturing all the details through my camera viewfinder.

I enjoyed doing the photoshoot and I hope you will enjoy looking at the images I have captured today.

Thanks Reigns. As I mentioned, there are heaps of whole exterior car shots all over the internet/forums. My project today was to photograph mine up close and in detailed.

There are some whole pictures on my delivery day:

Nice photo set.

992 km's!!!!! - you need to spend more time driving and less time taking photos of it!

I got the same pedals. They are good that they can be put on without drilling any holes.

Yeah, it's still too new! I don't get time to even put on 2000kms for the first service. How did you put the pedals on without drilling holes??? I did.

Thanks John. You're quite correct as most of the shots were taken with my Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 II Macro lens.

I never thought a photo of a door handle could be so good.

It really is nice to look at your photos.

Thanks mate. My wife reckons I have an OCD for car cleanliness. Let's just say the first thing I must do when I get home after a drive is to vacuum the car. I don't see what's wrong with that, I'm sure many of you do it too right? back me up boys.

Not at all. But my previous set from from GTB has more grip I would put the GTB pedals on when I do track days, very easy to do. I do like these better for daily drive though.

Thanks mate. I bought a canon EOS 7D in Xmas 2010 and has been hooked on photography. It ain't a cheap hobby though.

Thank you for the compliment. The pedals are aftermarkets but look very similar and the discreet ///M logo added a nice touch to them imho.

Sorry I missed your question Ian. I don't know why it says 08/2012. I picked up the car on 21/8/12 and I suppose the car thought I would do 2000kms service August. I don't think I will even reach 2000kms til mid October at this rate.
