sg520i, it should not roll back. I think there is some fault. It did not roll back until recently.

i think you can get them to produce the manifest against the chasis number and prove that all the options are in the build config.
Missing Logic 7 in build order. do you think it is PML or BMW who screwed up?
i think you might want to ensure that PML guarrantees all the options to be present before registering and let them sign a caveat emptor otherwise no deal.


ed520/k.king..
my previous 320i and current e60 didn't roll back on steep slope.. was at steven/scott road u turn across from American Club ...one of most notorious slope with a turn. once saw a pickup truck wheel spinning (smoke bellowing and all..) and couldn't get up the slope. you guys know this spot right?

the tyres on my e60 sucks big time, screaming all the way at tight corners and slight provocation. I think the run flat really sucks!

BTW..with new tax... 530i can be had for $237K only! Argh! C'est la vie!

When I corner, at abt 30-50km/h, I pedal and the car jerk. Like loss of power. Anybody encounters this? Probably only for 520i....underpower???

530i.......these 10 days must be the longest 10 days of your life
anyway, hope u get ur car soon n enjoy it! make sure u check everything out b4 taking delivery....

Zag.......yup i know the spot! its a tough spot to make a u turn esp for manual cars.
i think u shld ditch those run-flats n get something better.heard they r noisy n dun grip well...

sg520i / kiasu........i think u guys shld bring your car for a checkup just in case.i have no idea what the prob is,maybe the PML tech could shed more light on this

It is like there is no petrol for awhile...then suddenly petrol gush in and the car jerks. I only experience this when corner in slow speed....usually after taking a corner...when the road is straight...u will start to pedal so that the car will zoom....but it just jerk. shit...

Can anybody recommend a shop that has experience in installing after market reverse sensors? Has anybody tried installing the "no drilling" type reverse sensor? Will it install in the E60? Thanks!

i think my omv is around S$73K..pretty standard when i check on LTA website.

Initially I tried to get the euro plate (white and yellow) but decided eventually to stay with the PML standard black base metal plate guess was more matching to the silver grey body color.

your car docked already or still on water?
hey, make sure the ah pek at the delivery center don't over polish yr car, yr car might not have sat in the sun like the first batch of ours.

hey! gotta get together one of these days when u finally got yr ride! when is that?

anyone second that?
