Excessive mileage between dropoff and redelivery
I just picked up my car from the dealership after European Delivery. I'm so happy to have it back!
Weird thing is that the car has been driven 11 miles since I dropped it off in Germany and today. I dropped it off at the Munich airport. From my understanding, the car should have been transported from the Munich airport to Bremerhaven by truck, I know that the car was transported from U.S. port to the dealership by truck. I don't understand why the car would have to be driven 11 miles otherwise. Another reason that I bring this up is that there were several kids (teens to early twenties) hanging out in the office at the Munich airport, helping the older female who seemed to be running the place. I noticed that there was an Alpina B6 parked directly behind my car while I was doing some last-minute cleaning of the car for about an hour. At one point I noticed that the Alpina B6 was missing, and it reappeared with one of the kids driving and the other in the passenger seat. When they got out, I asked the kid who was driving if it was his car and he just smirked and said "No I wish." Seems like there was some unnecessary joy-riding of this customer's car. Not cool. Has anyone else noticed seemingly unnecessary mileage put on the car between drop-off and re-delivery? |

Just as a follow-up, I asked BMW NA, and they looked into the transport records. It looks like some miles put on before redelivery to the dealership. Only 3 miles or so put on at the dealership. BMW NA said that anything around 10 miles or so is expected. |

We picked ours up at the dealer today, and the odometer reading was UNCHANGED versus when we dropped it off in Munich. Assumedly that means it was driven less than one mile. Strange.

Mine had about 20 miles on it... At least the dealer gave me a full tank of gas and my car is broken in already. Not very happy about the mileage though. no reason to be over 5-10 miles
