Finally got my EB M235i :D

Richy59 · 04-04-2014, 11:06 AM

After ordering in November(!) I finally got my hands on my car

I'll get some more pictures of it once I've given it a good clean. It's going straight back to BMW in the morning though as when I was being shown around the car we found a massive chip and subsequent slit in the rear left tyre, so that's getting replaced, and when they installed my black grilles (in a hurry) they have scratched all the way around the inside of the bumper and it's quite noticable.

I also have had my tyre pressure monitor fail when driving home.

Other than that I'm a happy camper :P

Blimey Mate. Not the best of starts. Hope things get better. Nice motor though.

Great car man, sorry to hear of the problems

Only way is up though!

Richy59 · 04-04-2014, 03:23 PM

Thanks, hopefully it's all sorted tomorrow. With the slit in the tyre I've been wary of putting too much power into the rears :P First BMW and RWD caribe owned so I'm going to have to find my limit haha

Well she looks good from that angle above !

I hear ya on the stuff that went wrong - they will get it fixed for you though, and then hopefully it will be smooth sailing

Love the black kidney grills, I'm going to have to get a pair for my EB as well!

Definitely love the black grills, and that pic makes me really glad I already added them to my order.
