We where properly looked after by BMW on the 10th anniversary.

Had a free half day at J Palmer from our local dealer & they let me take out a M5 on my own for a decent time.
Not used them for a few years as the mechanic moved on so I can't complain about not being looked after.

Yes... after all we are not clients and we didn't pay a lot of money for purchasing and maintaining these cars.
Are you taking the piss mate ? Because I have been trying for half a year to organize something and BMW has ignored me epically. I only have 3 M cars, so not important for the franchise.

BMW went above and beyond for the 10th and they should be applauded for that. We had a great time.

Personally, I bought the car for the car. I know how much it costs, how much it'll be to run and the enjoyment I derive from it. I don't expect to receive any special favours from BMW, particularly on a 15 year old car, but if they come, then fine.

Big hand to the guys on this thread for trying to pursue this with BMW. I think it'd be great to repeat 2013 (with or without BMW contribution !) but seriously, you shouldn't be that surprised they're not jumping on this and scrambling to host us ! Not everyone wears the same rose tinted specs....even the manufacturer!
