Hello

I'm a new member to this forum and don't even own a BMW
But I've ordered one and hope it will arrive in April!

It's my first BMW, never owned one but I learned driving in a three series. That was almost 25 years ago.

This may sound strange but I bought the BMW mainly because it fulfilled all my practical needs. Of course I like it too otherwise I wouldn't have chosen it.

It's a company car, a 520d Corporate Lease Executive. This is a version made specific for the Dutch and Belgium lease market. The car is my first automatic. Color is Deep Sea Blue with a Beige leather interior. Options ordered are the HiFi speakers, iPod connector, split rear seat and of course the leather interior with heated front seats.

I looking forward to it being delivered and putting my first miles on it!

Regards,

Guus (Gus)

Welcome and congratulations on the new car! Remember to post pics when you get it, and keep your eyes peeled for the next benelux members meet. I suspect there'll be one not too long after you take delivery of your car
