Nice trip review and good luck with your car. Did you clean your car before shooting it? It is very clean, in almost every picture. Also, thumbs up for staying at Dorint and not Lindner. |

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it I took the chance and went commando. I thought having the instructor and confidence in my abilities be good enough insurance to survive the 'ring. Thankfully it was

The temporary euro plate is actually stuck on by double sided tape! The delivery specialist assured me that 99.999999% chance it would still be on the car when it arrived. Just to be safe, I printed out two notes (attached to this post) and placed one in the trunk and one on the dashboard.

Thanks a lot! There was no way I was going to miss the infamous 'Ring!

Thank you! I wish I had the time to do that, however, a polarizing filter on my lens works wonders on a dirty car it was absolutely filthy after Como, but I guess the filter did its job to hide that.

Great review. Glad to finally see an ED after all these months. That was a very ambitious (and expensive) itinerary! Despite a number of disappointments you kept soldiering on. Bravo! We've done 3 European Deliveries and I just can't get enough. It's contagious. Next time I recommend staying closer to Munich and enjoying the beautiful countryside and cuisine. Just one hour in the Welt lounge? I could live there. I think they wanted to kick me out on my delivery day.

Thanks for the small details. Two questions for you: 1) Does the insurance also cover theft and damage to the car in an accident--what is the deductible? and 2) I assume the Nav has the European maps loaded and the US maps are loaded at port delivery?
A question for anyone who knows: What happens in the event of a-- god forbid-- accident which requires that the car be repaired before being returned to BMW for shipment home? |

A vast majority of the cars driving TF are not covered for the Nurburgring. So, yeah. Eye opener.

Yea, that doesn't surprise me...but the Allianz insurance that used to be provided for ED did specifically cover it. There was a big thread about this over in the F80 forum when someone cracked up his new M3!

On the insurance front, it is still Allianz. The contract explicitly states that driving on a race track isn't covered. Other than that, it covers accidents and theft with 0 deductible. |
