Hi,
A colleague of mine will be visiting Frankfurt and Brussels next month. He is looking for some large BMW dealerships where he could buy original BMW accessories and parts for the E60. Some stuffs are not available in Asia or costs a bomb here.
Grateful for any pointers as to where to go in Frankfurt and Brussels to buy these things. Also, where would be a cheaper place to pick up accessories and parts?
Regards,
Beagle

Normaly, it will cost less money if your friend buys parts in Germany. That's the country where the smallest part of our E60 is built, and VAT is also lower there.
But, if your friend can let us know what he projects to buy, we can check with our belgian dealer the very best price he's able to do.
And we'll be happy to meet E60 Forum Friends in Belgium !
