Hi OPPO's, I went into my local Bimmer dealership to service my mini and inquire about the new bmw i3. While I was their I saw the 2 series leaked photos and it really didnt do much for me, I mean i'm good with a hatch, so I got to thinking.
I bought this RHD Austin Mini from England a year ago: it cost $6000 with shipping to the colony, I bought it with three other guys so the shipping was really $1200.
That brings me to this, I wanted the i3, or maybe the 2'er or even a 135i, but to be honest I am really not a fan of turbos, and i love the e87 130i, but we dont get it here. 1er hatchbacks are around $7-10k from England or Europe and they're horrendously gorgeous. I want one (no pun intended), and I am looking into bringing one over in February or March, obviously there would have to be a lot of Due diligence involved, but if anyone else is interested we can probably fit 2-3 in a shipment. Crazy yes, but I would really love to have a funky, solid, Na, RWD everyday car, or maybe that is the i3.

I would love one but I don't think you'll be able to register it to be road legal here.

If you decide to ship one, get one from Germany. They're relatively cheap and plentiful in Germany and you'll get a LHD vehicle. UK is RHD, which I imagine you'd like to prevent.

Does the 15 year rule not apply to this car?
