New 3 Series Owner On A Modest Budget

Hi everyone.

I just bought my first BMW (it's the fruit of a 5 year life plan) and I'm extremely happy with it. I've joined this forum mainly to gather advice and wisdom about servicing and maintenance when it should arise. By this I mean where I should take her and what should I look at paying. By modest budget I don't mean I need to scrimp on the stuff that needs paying for but I also don't have cash to burn if you know what I mean.

Anyway, I couldn't be happier with the car after 2 months and I'm now driving with a smile on my face rather than the grimace that my old Mondeo gave me! I've already promised myself a 4 or a 6 series in about 2 years time (640d of course ha ha!).

Well, I look forward to trawling through the forum and learning more about my car as I go.

All the best for Christmas and New Year,

Dave
