ANNOUNCEMENT: Amendments to posting classified ads in BMWCCP Forum

In order to further protect the interest of BMW enthusiasts, visitors, club members and our club sponsors and to facilitate the sale of BMW-related items in this forum, the following amendments to posting classified ads will be implemented effective immediately:

1. Pictures of the item on sale
must be posted. Click here on instructions on how to post pictures. An alternative is to post a link to another site where pictures of the item can be seen. It is recommended to post a front, side, back, engine bay and interior shots of the vehicle as these are the most common requests of prospective buyers.

2. The price for the item/vehicle
must be posted.

3. That vehicles posted for sale
must declare whether papers are complete or not (i.e. taxes paid)

4. The seller
must respond to those who inquire within 48 hours.

5. Items that conflict with a club sponsor's product or services
should not be posted as a matter of courtesy. The 7 sponsors and their major products and/or services:
5.1. Caltex - fuel and lubricants
5.2. Tumi - luggage, bags, wallets
5.3. PIAA - lighting, wipers, horns and rims
5.4. Concept One - Rims
5.5. RCBC - bank products and services
5.6. Globe - telco services an products
5.7. Bridgestone - tires

6. We allow the sale of BMW-related items that may be in conflict with our sponsor products and services,
for as long as it isn't for commercial purposes. It should be along the lines of disposing the personally owned item.

7. BMWCCP members may sell non-BMW items in the Flea Market section of the Member's Only Area.

8. Failure to observe the above guidelines will result in having the thread locked. Locked threads will remain accessible for reference unless the administrators deem it necessary to delete it if deemed inappropriate (e.g. offensive, misleading, non-BMW items, etc).

9.
All existing posts should comply by August 31st, 2010. We will lock the threads where we deem it is not compliant with the new guidelines.


We look forward to your compliance with our new guidelines and rules. Thank you and enjoy your visit!

Default New Front Wheel for BMW

It is no surprise that BMW is entering into the world of Front-Wheel Drive vehicles especially considering BMW releasing information on their latest survey revealing 80% of BMW 1-Series owners think it is front-wheel drive . BMW’s new front-wheel drive car is expected to be called the 0-Series and should fill the gap between their MINI cars and the 1-Series. The 0-Series should satisfy the buyers who are looking for a small car with a premium/semi-luxury feel.

The 0-Series is expected to be built off of the next generation MINI platform. Engine choice may range from a 1.5-liter 3cyl turbo diesel on up to a 200+ hp 4cyl complete with the aid of an electronic differential and active damping.

This will be BMW’s first ever front-wheel drive vehicle. The whole idea of a front-wheel drive BMW will not sit well with many automotive enthusiasts and to others it will be something they have been waiting for to compensate for that gas guzzling E60 BMW M5 in the garage. The 0-Series is expected to be matched up against the Audi A1 and other premium compact vehicles. Seems every vehicle manufacturer will have some type of “little” car in the near future.

0-series? Not a good name. Who is doing their branding? Were the old Minis also FWD?

Yup. The original mini's were FWD.

Personally, I don't like the idea of a FWD BMW. They should let MINI take care of that market and maintain the core values of BMW. Besides, introducing another series to "bridge the gap" between the MINI and the 1-series will just blur the line between these two brands. Not good if you ask me.
