Hello from a Newbie-imgp1814.jpgHello
I have been a member of the E60 forum since last year and have found the forum invaluable in helping with issues in my wifes 525.
Earlier this week I bought myself a 645ci convertible (2005 model) and I'm selling my 330ci convertible.

Now that I officially own a car that fits into this forum I wanted to say a big HELLO to everyone and say thanks for all the help that I have received by reading through the forum posts in the past

No plans at the moment - Just watching the issues with Ipod integration and might look at removing the cd changer and installing the Ipod Integration
There are too many issues with BMW SA and them suspending your motorplan if you do any mods that aren't approved by them
