please contact our Head of Product Fabrication, Uwe.Gotobekidin@bmw.co.uk

He sounds like an honest chap

Chompers · 04-01-2015, 04:02 AM

^ He is, and has replied very quickly to a massage I sent regarding a potential order

He was also very helpful and suggested contacting Coast2Coast, Broadspeed, TRL & Riaz to make sure I was getting a good deal.

I don't know what to believe today - is anything actually true for the next 24 hours

Nothing like as sophisticated and believable as some of the ones in the past...

I think my favourite, from the early 80's (IIRC) was the self-washing car... something impregnated into the paint that would foam and clean when it rained.... I find myself wishing that one was true even now...!!!

"[made up of] rubber - standard protection in the door seals of all BMW models"

Be prepared for wind noise warranty claims then

Yes, sorry, had meant to mention that.
