Thanks all.
As a UK customer it is not possible to do ED anymore, it stopped a few years ago. I'm just after seeing the production line, and it seems silly not to try and tie it in with seeing my car if it's possible... I have a contact at Munich but unfortunately he doesn't have any at Dingolfing. So we'll see. Bad thing is I'm guessing no photos whatsoever allowed. Mat

Mat,
were you offered Mineral White as an option on your M5?? I was in the dealer on Monday and they swore blind I could only have the colours on the configurator, which does not include MW.... how much extra was this option for you? |

Asking because I'm hoping BMW customer services can arrange my factory tour around mine going round, which I am told is this week most likely. Mat

I've just had it confirmed it's actually as I thought...
Production week is week 6, ie week commencing 3rd of February Expected week is week 9, ie week commencing 24th February So I guess the 02, is just a quick ref for the dealer to show it's Feb. But the factory are saying: " Dear Mr Lawrence We are very happy to inform you that we can confirm the following date for a guided tour at the BMW Plant Dingolfing for 2 person: Friday, 07.02.2014 at 14:00 o´clock. The date and time has been bindingly booked for you. Please let us know if you are unable to keep this appointment. Unfortunately it is not possible to see your own car in production. " Boo, but prob worth a visit anyway... Mat

This is so unfortunate. Chevy has this program for the Corvette. You can pay for pictures (someone basically takes a whole bunch of pictures of people who build your car when they are building it, it's called the Corvette album or something). You can also pay 5 grand to meet the person who actually hand builds your engine and watch him do it in person. Obviously the second option is not possible with BMW as none of these engines are hand built anymore, but BMW at a minimum could hire a few interns to hold a DSLR and take pictures. They could make so much money off of this and for a lot more money, they could give you a factory tour and let you watch your car being built.
