I can tell it's been a year......I think there's more than 3 of us now - could be 6 or 7, although Jalf is selling up and keeping quiet about the replacement.... :poke: :D

I've got the 2010 catalogue if that's of any use though... :thumbsup:
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

For further clarification, is the grey on facelifts Sterling with an E or Stirling with an i ?

I have seen it with both spellings on various adverts and forums etc. Whats the official spelling from BMW.

How can I tell if my 04 Facelift 3.0i mobile is Jet Black or Sapphire Black? Need a new bonnet and want to make sure it matches?

Edit: Sorry, just read whole post and it states locations.
