D70 - Lucky if you get one! (New D70 with "old" 85/1,4)

As an addition to my D1 I was so lucky today to get a D70. Here in Europe it is not so easy to even get a D70 you can carry away. You can place preorders - but the delivery time is ???

So I was lucky to make a trip with my new toys: the D70 and my new:

Fortunately not! Otherwise I have to sell D1, D70, the lenses and the BMW :-(

Unfair ;-)) I'd LOVE to have that car - and the D70! At least I'm getting my D70 in two weeks or so. But the Z4 has to wait

I love your car! Unfortunatly, compared to Germany, it's about 3 TIMES as expensive here in Denmark where I live - taxes

Sometimes just the car prices (and the German cars!) makes me want to move across the border Enjoy it to the max! You can't beat having a convertible in the summer!

And if you haven't seen them, you should check out these BMW M3 pics:

No problem at all - at least in Cologne, Germany. Just don't go to the big shops (Foto Gregor or Foto Lambertin). Try the smaller ones like http://www.foto-haehnel.de/index.html . Got mine there two days ago straight from the shelf. Even the price was lower: 1.075 EUR for the body compared to 1096 EUR.

Cheers,
Stefan

Many pleasure with your D70. And "Keep on postprocessing!"

The BMW Z4 is absolute pleasure. These different taxes inside the EU are not fair. They must go imho - to lower taxes in every country inside the EU! But I argue that the politicians will say: "Yes - identical taxes in every country is o.k. But everywhere as high as in Denmark today!" :-(((
