Wooo Hooo.. I picked up my M12 (ok second hand 6K on the clock) on Friday.. I love it I love it I love it..

Trouble is I'm in Brussels Mon-Fri so I'm only going to get to play with it at weekends for the time being.

Congratulations. Is it the GTO or the GTO3?

GTO3.. Titanium. Got a few niggles I'll need to play with but I was expecting that..

Anyone got any experience with fitting new bulbs behind the dash. The speedo and fuel ones have gone pop.

No - but AFAIK the dials on the dash just "pop" out. However, you shouldn't need to play around like that so I'd enquire if you can get them done under warranty at the next service(one of mine was done at my first 1000 mile service - no questions).

Otherwise, if you really want to play - these people actually make the dials www.caigauge.com and I think they have some technical details on their website.

FYI I was told that bulbs don't come under the warranty (unless the reason they blew is due to a fault elsewhere) but even so they are not too costly.

I bought it from a dealer. They'd bought it from a main dealer (C-N) to have as a "showy offy" car on the front lot. Then were suprised when about a dozen people called on the first day it was advertised, I was lucky enough to be able to get up to see it before the next bloke, who was due the next day. Slapped down a deposit and she was mine..

Titanium, red leather, etc etc.
