Got the call, but what timing!

Finally got the call from the leasing company - my new baby will be delivered tomorrow at 9am but I'm getting married the day after and will be on honeymoon for two weeks. With all that I've got to do tomorrow I think I will maybe get to drive for about 10 minutes!

The 2 months wait is finally over, but now I have to wait another two weeks. At least this new wait will be on a beach in Thailand instead of at my desk.

Sounds like you'll be one of the few newlyweds looking forward to getting back from their honeymoon

Congratulations BTW on both counts.

Well congrats on the car and the marriage!
I can relate with bad timing; I picked up my car the day before I went to Orlando for the weekend. Then the hurricane came through and destroyed everything, including all of the street lights. I haven't been able to drive anywhere. I have 200 miles on my car and I've had it for a month!

Okay...that explains it, the low mileage.

Ditch the bride and go for a ride. Well, maybe not but it would make a good commercial.

Congrats on both counts!!

I'm waiting for the call to pick mine up. I'm sure it will be the day before I head to Florida for a week.

Congrats on the car and the marriage.

Just focus on the bride rather than than the car on your honey moon

Congrats

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Got to work this morning and there she was sitting in the car park, gleaming and sparkling! Took her for a spin straight away - wow - this car is AWESOME!!! Much better than I remembered from the test drive, the engines is so smooth and the handling is just wonderful. I have the 325 in sapphire black and it has plentiful power for me, especially as I have been driving a 316ti for 3 years.

The logic7 didn't disappoint either - absolutely banging, and so clear even at high volume, what a great option choice. Love the heated seats, love the leather sports seats, love the climate control. This thing just rocks!


OK, time to go and collect my wedding suit and head for the hotel. I'll post some pics of the car when I get back in just over two weeks.
