Hello and good to be finally here

Post by Daveall » Mon Oct 24, 2022 12:26 pm

Hi All,
New to BMW and this great forum. It’s been a six month wait for the new M40i, and looking forward to delivery in the next few hours.
Excitement building, and the weather looks to be improving for a rain free playtime this afternoon. Maybe even be able to drop the roof for a short while - fingers crossed. Will try and upload a pic later today :D :D :D

      Red is a good colour for hiding any blood caused from cornering at high-G's

      Being a life long Man City supporter, I wouldn’t even get in a red car, never mind own one :o ……but I was used to seeing red when Man United often used to beat the Blues. Not so often now though, a thing of the past ? :roll: :evil: :rofl:

      Welcome to the forum
      Absolutely stunning car and colour.
      If I ever swapped mine it would be for either the G 29
      Or the jag f type
      I’m sure what you have there will keep you smiling for a very long time
