New Owner - First Bmw Purchase

His Missus
in New Members Welcome

Hello Everyone

I have purchased my first BMW this past week, and have decided to join the BMW Owners' Club.

I thought it only polite to introduce myself and I dare say that once I have found my way around the Forum I will pop back and post again.

Happy and safe motoring to you all.

    Hello All

    This forum lark is hard for us beginners ... firstly I forgot my password so couldn't log in ... then I couldn't figure out how to reply (even though I had done it last week) and now The Sheep gives me the added pressure of asking me to upload photos!!!!!!! Oh how will I cope! I shall give it a try in the next few days.

    The welcome has been lovely and I intend to use the site and hopefully contribute as well as read posts. I hope to attend an event or two soon as well.

    I had a few niggles last week during my first week of driving the car. It wouldn't start and had to have the ECU repaired, and now the temperature gauge tells me that the outside temperature is minuss 44 degrees centigrade and the airbag light stays on. The garage are going to look at those two issues for me tomorrow.

    Its a lovely drive though and although it was out of action the first four days I bought it because of the ECU I hope it will be happy motoring from now on.

    Once again thanks for the welcome everyone!
