Hi all

I have just ordered my first ever BMW this month, New Black BMW 530i M Sport and selling my 2004 Mercedes E320. I cant take any more of the poor build, reliability and dealer servicing issues.

This is my first ever BMW car, I have a lot to learn and I hope that can contribute to the forum, please bare with me, have been in the Mercedes camp for a long time

Welcome and enjoy. There's a good group on here; and I agree MB all around poor quality issues are annoying to a point I'd be hard pressed to get another anytime soon. I don't need some cute chick offering me coffee when they couldn't fix my car.
