Back to BMW!
Hi all
I'm a former multiple BMW (and Mini) owner who has recently returned to Bimmer after a stint in Benz land. I just wanted to say 'hi' and kudos to everyone here for creating a killer community. I feel like I'm 'home' as BMW has always had a special place in my heart. Attached is a pathetically-unplanned snap of my 228 that I snuck while signing paperwork at the dealer two weeks ago. I have so much planned for this car which I plan to chronicle in my ongoing YouTube series. That's all for now, I look forward to learning from everyone here!

I was shocked to ever visit Benz land and I did enjoy jt. I leased a C450 AMG sport and it was an incredible car. I had three good years with it and it never failed to turn heads (or snap necks).
My track toy (as unlikely a choice as it was) was a 2005 SLK350. Blast to drive. Naturally aspirated. Smooth, torquey and quite fun on the track. Sadly, I didn't need the C450 so I completed my lease and bid it farewell and, as for the SLK350... see below.

Sucks, but thanks for sharing. That was a lot of standing water. Surprised they didn't call it off.
