A Photo Report of a European Delivery on a 335i>>>>

Greetings!

I posted this on the General Forum, but thought I'd share with you guys over here as well.

I recently went with my good friend to do a European Delivery on his 335i coupe. We spend 4 days visiting German and Austria and took LOTS of photos.

Just follow the links:

Day 1: http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/europe1/europe1.htm

Day 2: http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/europe1/europe2.htm

Day 3: http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/europe2/europe3.htm

Day 4: http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/europe3/europe4.htm

Enjoy!

Oh heck...we didn't have it above 4000 rpm for too long...we didn't tromp on the accelorator at all, and we usually were going between 110 and 120, which is within break-in parameters.

Seems like a great trip. Hopefully i'll get to do ED someday.
From reading what you wrote, im guessing you guys dont speak any german. Was it easy for you to communicate with others and navigate around town without getting lost ( such as trains)?

There were minor challenges at times, but that was part of the fun!

Great read John, thanks! I assume that BMW updates "the wall" with each new 3 series introduction. That's pretty neat.

I noticed in the picture of the menu that the menu was in english. Did you have to ask for that or that was their standard menu?

The version of the European Map Navigation DVD we got was in English.
