Dingolfing said it wasn't possible, nevermind, understandable.

Then I thought it might be worth an email to someone quite high up at Sytner that I met when buying my M3.

A few days later and some rather high ranking people from BMW started to get involved and it seems the right buttons were pushed.

I had call today from the MD of my dealership saying he doesn't want to give away the surprise but they have something special planned for me if I arrive an hour before the arranged time.

Looking forward to it, even just the factory tour... so what do people think they have lined up? I'm intrigued.

Shall report after I've been, hope to be able to take some photos.

I will be there in May for my trip and I would love to see the Dingolfing plant. I've already seen the Regensburg plant the last time I went. Do you have any contact info at the plant? I wonder if they offer it publicly or if you have to reach through to someone "inside"?
