2007 promises to be a landmark year for the Bruce Lynton Group, Bruce Lynton BMW, Bruce Lynton MINI Garage and BMW Group Australia.
2007 has already started off with a bang with Bruce Lynton sponsoring the Mondial Australian Womens Tennis Hardcourt Championships and the Magic Millions Carnival. BMW also joined forces with Magic Millions in 2007 to become the official car of Magic Millions. As the Gold Coast local dealer we represent BMW at all of the events associated with the 19 day Gold Coast Carnival and affiliated events throughout the year.
To kick off a year of highly anticipated launches, the new MINI Hardtop launch will be held in March 2007.
Also being launched in 2007 is the new BMW 3 Series Retractable Hardtop Convertible. This new addition to the ever popular BMW 3 Series range arrives in late March just in time for a perfect Gold Coast Summer. Enquiry has been high due to the models variants, with the car coming in 325i and the new twin turbo 335i.
The launch of the acclaimed new BMW X5 is here in April and the first owners can’t wait to take delivery. The new X5 will be launched initially with two engine variants - a 3 litre, six cylinder diesel and a 4.8 litre V8 petrol. Later in the year it will be available in a 3 litre petrol.
On a national level we welcome the new BMW Australia Managing Director, Mr Guenther Seemann. Previously the Managing Director of the Middle East BMW Group, Guenther is taking over from Dr Franz Sauter, on February 14th, who is moving back to Munich and will take on the role of Quality Management and Customer Care worldwide located in the BMW Group Sales division.
2007 was a year of record sales, of which I would like to thank our customers for their continued support. With the arrival of the new models including the launch of BMW X5, the BMW 3 Series Convertible, the BMW M3 and LCI updates for the 1 Series, 5 Series, and 6 Series. This certainly made 2007 a busy and exciting year for the Bruce Lynton Group.
