Right, my new ride is now here, and it's even better than Imagined. I have a question though.

Is the subscription for the connected drive from when my car was new back in June this year, transferrable to me for the balance of the 3 years?

Yes you get the balance of the subscription from when it was new. Post up pics in the main forum, you've said hello in this thread, now get yourself posting into the main section!!

I think it depends on was it ever connected...some BMW's are never connected if there management cars...when i bought mine it wasnt registered and then after 3 months i registered it and it was covered for 3 years from date of application on the paperwork, so im not sure that correct although they do make mistakes or errors with admin.

If you intend to post pictures from outside of the forum, use the [IMG] and [/IMG] tags, not "IMG".

Webby, press "post reply"
Below the message box is a button called "manage attachments", click it
A new window opens, click "browse"
Find the picture on your hard drive and press "open"
Then press "upload" back on the new window that opened
When its uploaded, close the window
Write a short message "here's my new ride"
Press "submit reply"

Try this

Steve748 · 12-19-2008, 07:07 AM

done it for you!

Steve748 · 12-19-2008, 07:15 AM

alternately you can click on the image number, right click on 'open with' then click on paint, wait til picture shows and then click on 'Image' then 'stretch & Skew' then reduce the 100% to 50% on both...then save as and add so you know what it is then save and then look in documents or wherever you saved it and load that up as before!

Budgie · 12-19-2008, 11:01 AM
