Anyone does 1 series parallel import to SG?

Hi all,
I am very keen in purchasing 1 series that I see on BMW sites. Please let me know if anyone knows about this./ THanx, jw

No parallel importer at the moment. You'll have to bring it in yourself but remember you have to homologate the car and that itself is costly.

Nope... none

Heard from a friend today that there was only one sold in Singapore by TTS. At least if you order you won't have to homologate it.

I don think so... Unless u r suggesting that he buy from TTS as well. Apparently for PI car, u have to homologate separately, aka each importer has to homologate thier own car that was brought in... At least that was true for my car when i got it...

How much does the homologation cost? Is it expensive?

The 130i is a mouthwatering prospect

Not sure about the homologation cost...

As for the 130i, i tot it's still concept ? is it confirm on the road yet ?

Now if the one series got 135i aka 3L TC !!!!! keke

According to this:

130i RHD is due in UK and Australia later this year.

Not true. You don't have to repeat the process if its identical.
