    So i bought my very first new car!

    Allright Gentleman,

    as you can see in my signature i have owned quiet a few nice cars in the past 4 years and 3 month since i am hear in Dubai and before that in Germany i had a couple of nice rides too ;)

    However, i never bought a brand new car as i could never justify to spend money for a certain class of car to buy it brand new, when i could buy a higher class car second hand... However, having burned alot of money on second hand cars and modifications etc i decided to buy a brand new car with warranty and service contract. Another point is that i am getting settled and i am planning to spend my money in different things but cars! For sure if i am alone and not about to get married i may act stupid, buying a GT3 or something LOL...

    However, as things changed i decided to get something conservative...normal...reliable...comfortable...e tc

    My choice was a 2011 PASSAT R36 with full options in BLACK! :D

    I got a really nice deal on it with 5 years unlimited mileage warranty and 3 years or 45k service contract + 1st year of full comprehensive injurance included.

    The car has everything..started from Keyless entry over Bi xenon until Navigation! I couldnt stop smiling when i test drove it.. its such an amazing car.. it runs well.. it sounds great.. it handles good... And i mean.. i have driven alot of cars.. and i never thought that a PASSAT can EVER put a smile on my face beeing used to M's and RS's cars...

    I can pick it up today and i already cant wait.. i also cant wait to get in the car in the morning and go home in the evening without any headache, problems or whatever... If something goes wrong in the next 5 YEARS i will just drop it at the dealer with a big smile in my face!

    Of course i wouldnt be me if i would keep it stock.. so there are some slight mods planned but nothing majour and mostly for the eye and the ear!

    I will post some pictures as soon as i have it....

    Oh.. as i didnt wanted to leave the BMW family completely i bought my Fiancee a Mini Cooper S :D :D :D (previously owned by Anas the Miniclub president)

      First of all Congrats bro for getting the new car, im sure its a nice and new feeling getting in a car that hasnt lost its virginity..

      Regarding the below statement, as far as I know the headache will be gone only for the first 45K Kms, after that you dont have the service contract, except the warranty.. Which means the basic oil services will have to be paid from your pocket.. Correct me if Im wrong..

        Well thats correct.. but the headache was not the service.. to pay the service after 45k kilometers is okay.. What i am talking about are problems with the car etc

          Yes in that case you're safe for the next 5 years, all kind of big issues will be covered by the warranty.. But I still think 45K is too less to be offered in any service contract, specially if we compare it to BMW's new service contracts 200K Kms..

          Nevertheless, what matters is your satisfaction
