20 years for a BMW in NZ it would not be worth much at all. I've been to Norway in winter spent 4 weeks there. It's very expensive but it must be relative to the wages paid. Too cold for this boy I like winter to be short and have some warmth.

I support you views on real wheel drive but we only have 3 more years and it will be over for BMW's 1 & 2 series. I hope petrol keeps falling in price then BMW may have a another look at their real wheel drive cars. If not then my next car will be a 1 series plug-in hybrid as you cannot look back you just have to move forward.

I will also consider the plug in hybrid. Too bad they tend to be rather heavy. The Audi A3 e-tron is 3-400 kg heavier than a normal A3.

Mud Flaps BMW - 1 serie

Yes I do have one more picture of the car with mud flaps mounted.
Hello.
I had a conversation with the person Lars from Skövde and he bought Mud Flaps, front and rear of BMW in Skövde.
Lars and colleague mounted Mud Flaps on the car without adjusting anything and they fitted perfectly, see pictures.
Many describe it is about knowing how to do it.
Many people assembled Mud FLaps on the car without any problems on both the 1 Series 3 Series with M-package, see pictures.

Thanks for the pictures.

For those that installed does anyone have a copy of the installation instructions they can share?
I can't order through dealer here but have found a source for a set of front and rears but no instructions through them or searching online.

Look great on the white car! Wondering how they'll go with midnight blue

I don't think you will need any instructions. It is a rather straight forward installation which pretty much explains itself.
