Just had an email from Dick Lovett about a 3-series and Z4 launch event - not branch specific though...

Pretty crazy that they are just ignoring you after the footfall you have created in that place!Number5 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2019 11:11 pmIs that at Dick Lovett, Cribbs ?
If so thats quite ironic that ive been in touch with them recently, test drove an E89 4 months ago and was promised a call as soon as they knew when they were getting one in.
......I've heard nothing from them !
(Not to mention organising 2 meets with them that brought in about fifty Z4 owners ! )
Yeah, it is at Dick Lovett Cribbs. Apparently quite a few attending Saturday morning. It sounds like is pretty open, so would just pop over if you want to attend it. They are taking bookings for a test drive in the demonstrator as well, so going to have a blast in it!

I am going along to Harry Fairbairn in Glasgow for their z4 launch tonight.
I will take some pictures and share my thoughts tomorrow. I am not convinced on the looks from the pictures, I am hoping I love it when I see it in person!

Some pictures from the Harry Fairbairn launch night in Glasgow.
They had some nice canapes, live music, caricature artist and 2 z4's. There was a white 40i and a red 20i. The Interiors were lovely and I liked the car much more in the flesh than I did in the pictures. Staff were very friendly and well trained up on the cars. The jump in tech over the e89 is amazing - Loved the large sat nav screen, perfect for a road trip. Seats also felt very comfortable.

Doesn't look very busy for a launch night.
I remember going to the launch of the new Yamaha R1 in 2009, the shop was crammed with people wanting a look and to hear it.

I'd imagine there's a few more BMW dealerships compared to Yamaha.

Yep you will be right but I would imagine that BMW sell way more cars than Yamaha sell bikes.MefiEcosse wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 2:50 pmI'd imagine there's a few more BMW dealerships compared to Yamaha.

Peter Vardy in Edinburgh had their launch events on the 6th and 7th for both the 3 series and the Z4. I'm tempted to go have a snoop around.
