New guy from Germany CHCH

[München 1]

Just wanted to say hello. Got to NZ three months ago on a working holiday and obviously needed a Bavarian ride. My facelift E39 is one of the first ones built back in November 2000. it's just a 520 but i'm ok with that, there's no Autobahn here anyway. Previous vehicles back home were E36 316 ti , E46 318 , E39 530D touring , E39 523 , E65 745 , E46 M3 and a 2003 "BMW" Range Rover V8. Hope to get some good info and parts every now and then from fellow forum users.

Welcome - what is 'L'? Leipzig?

That's right. It's the town i lived most of my life in. We have a plant producing I3 , I8 , X1 , 1 and 2 series. They used to produce E90's as well, but they got pulled off. We also have the Porsche plant producing all Cayenne , Macan , and Panamera models . The very limited Carrera GT was also made there.
