Meet your vehicle in the place where it was made.

1. Order Your BMW

Choose a vehicle to meet in Europe.

Taking delivery of your new BMW in Europe will definitely make you smile. So will the savings. You may save up to 7 percent of the retail price - up to $5,935. Those savings may pay for your trip. You'll also save by eliminating airplane, train, taxi, and bus fares while in Europe.

Important Information: European Pick Up During Winter Months

Germany passed a ruling that requires drivers to properly equip their vehicles according to inclement weather conditions. When driving conditions are dangerous due to ice or snow, cars must be equipped with All Season tires (also called 'M+S tires'). There might be street sections for which snow tires or even snow chains are declared mandatory. This often is the case for ski resorts and alpine passes. It is the responsibility of the car owner and driver to equip their vehicle appropriately for the prevailing weather conditions. If you do not appropriately equip your vehicle for the weather conditions that exist during your drive, obstruct traffic or get involved in an accident as a result thereof, it is possible you may be cited for a violation of the law by the local authorities or be found to be grossly negligent according to the law. Other countries you may visit including Austria and Switzerland may also have similar laws. If the Police find that you are not equipped with the appropriate items when the weather conditions deem them necessary, and if the officer feels that other traffic participants have been endangered, they have the authority to fine a driver 20 euros or in some cases significantly higher.

Important Information: Insurance and Registration

BMW European Delivery provides 14 days of premium insurance and tourist registration with no additional cost to you. However, should you decide to extend this, additional coverage is available for purchase in 30-day increments only. Insurance beyond the 14 days and up to five (5) months is available for an additional premium. For example, for 45 days coverage, you would order two months of insurance, which is the actual coverage period, not one month plus 14 days. This coverage must extend to your drop-off date and can be arranged through your local BMW Center and must be done in advance to your pick up date. The European Delivery department must be notified a minimum of 2 weeks prior to pick up in Munich in the event of an insurance change. The change of insurance cannot be done upon arrival in Munich.

5. Come Home

Meet your BMW in your driveway.

It couldn't be easier to ship your new BMW home at the conclusion of your trip. There are 13 convenient drop-off locations throughout Europe. Simply drive your car to the location of your choice.

E.H. Harms is the designated shipping company. The cost of transportation, customs clearance and duty, and marine insurance is included in the purchase price of all BMWs sold under the European Delivery Program.

All cars depart from Antwerp, Belgium, or Bremerhaven, Germany. It will take approximately 6-8 weeks to the East coast and 8-10 weeks to the West Coast from drop off date for a car to arrive at your BMW center for final delivery. Be advised that if you drop off your car at any other location than Germany that arrival time will be longer.

Please remove all personal items and accessories (such as the first aid kit and hazard warning sign). These items are not covered by insurance. Only the spare tire, jack, and tools can be shipped with the car. It is recommended that the exterior of your vehicle is clean before you initiate shipment to U.S. You may want to visit a car wash prior to dropping off your car, especially if you have traveled long distances in Europe.

BMW will notify you of your vehicle's arrival in the United States. After clearing customs, the BMW Vehicle Processing Center at the port of entry will inspect your car and install any applicable accessories. Your BMW will be inspected again upon arriving at your BMW center. The center's technicians will also install any optional accessories you wish to add to your new BMW. Your client advisor will redeliver your car to you, the perfect souvenir of your European vacation.
