BMW Eco-Blogger Dynamic Efficient Diesel Drive 2009

Okay, I was surprise that I got an invitation to join few other famous bloggers to try out the NEW BMW Efficient Dynamic Diesel Cars. All this while I’ve been driving a local cheapo car of coz I would seize this opportunity to test drive my dream car Beemer wor, haha. Sure would be everyone dream car and wants to own it but I so poor la.

This was a 2 days 1 night journey from KLCC to Belum Resort @ Pulau Banting. Friday night can’t even sleep well coz will be driving BMW and scare la later crash or bang or scratch the car then I will need to pay the price ma so need to be extra careful too =p

So scarified my weekend sleeping time and woke up early in the Saturday morning just to prepared myself for the BMW Drive! Reached KLCC Mandarin Oriental Hotel and parked my car in! Woo hoo and then get to meet other bloggers and Big guys from BMW and Petronas too. Mingled around and enjoyed my healthy breakfast. Get to talk to some other famous bloggers that I have not met before and it’s nice to catch up with them.

Then there was an introduction and briefing done and some basic information and knowledge being transferred to us so that we could handle the Beemer better. Haha.

This is like F1 and we were assigned to a position, pole position! haha.

Then we head to our own BMW which parked right in front of KLCC. My co-driver is from Gua.com.my and he’s a nice guy. We were assigned to a 5 Series, BMW 520d! We were escort by 2 traffic police all the way to our 1st stop, A cool car to start off the journey.

BMW 3 Series & 5 Series Diesel Car Test Drive @ Belum Resort

I was invited to test drive the New BMW Diesel Efficient Dynamics Cars – BWM 320d & BMW 520d for the past two days. The entire journey and experience was really awesome and great! Never had such driving experience before. It’s powered by Petronas Dynamic Diesel. The combination really great and could bring up the optimum performance!

It’s was a two days one night thingy and drive from KLCC (Mandarin Oriental) – Mutiara Damansara – Tanjung Malim – Tapah – Ipoh – Gerik – Pulau Banding (Belum Resort).

Start journey with BWM 520d! Yes it’s a new diesel car and it’s terror!

End journey with BMW 320d! This is another new diesel car but not so terror compared to the big brother 5Series =p

I just love the handling and the speed and it’s really efficient and dynamic! Diesel is way to go. 1 Full tank for the entire trip and still got 100km to go. Talk about fuel consumption? Good? Obviously!

Stay tuned for more updates~ A lot of dramas happened! Still too excited about the trips and tired la. haha.
