Hi. I'm Richard. Lots of first time experiences for me: First ever BMW, first ever diesel and first ever automatic gearbox.

I was a dedicated ford owner, but so far I am loving my '07 320D SE.

    Thanks for your kind welcome.

    I'm now in my mid fifties, but every time I look at my 'new' BMW, I get goose bumps and the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Is this normal? Will pass? :mellow:

    Thats quite normal. Im in my early 50's and must admit to a lump in my trousers when I see my Coupe.

    Hi Geoff. I would love to upload some images, but although I've tried, I can't seem tom do it. Do I have to have a premium membership?
