Warranty not valid for trackday goers

_Nathan_ · 02-03-2013, 12:49 PM

Just renewing my e90 M3 warranty and noticed this.

Guess CSL Register number plates are now compulsory for anyone taking their CSL on track and expecting to have warranty work done...

I dont think any of us have ever done a trackday so should not be a problem......

Latest pastime for insurance investigators is apparently trackday snooping, doesn't do much for claims but they get to see a lot of tracks and some nice motors

BMW will be delighted at the May event, good chance to write down chassis numbers of everyone on track

When did it change, anyone know?

In which case no number plates will appear of any of the track day photographers websites so not a problem

Not sure how you would control the 'Happy Snapper' don't forget we also have Michelin with a Camera Crew coming on the jolly jaunt, as well as the PH boys; Alex and Tom (the photographer) that's not to mention BMW's own publicity team, who will be snapping like there's no tomorrow. Bye, Bye, extended warranty claims

The only way of avoiding your plates being snapped is either: remove them, superimpose kk's trackday plates over them or cover them over in some other way, bin bag not the most stylish but never the less, effective.

The salzburg track is a private hire not a trackday its is a pleasure driving session for the CSL'S

If BMW really want to find out who tracks their M3 CSL and who doesn't they can. Is not hard. Also the presence of all the photographers and BMW on the trip they will be there. And u cannot drive on the roads with illegal number plates clearly.
