Well high speed badge failure can be expensive to fix..

Wonder if there is a wear and tear clause in the warranty for the badge?

The dealer did say they will put it on for me and it comes with a 2 year anti corrosion warranty.

Anyone know when they stopped being free?

We got ours from Dick Lovett in Bristol not that long ago...

Exactly - Ebay has some genuine ones for around £10.

I bought one too last year from a stealer. If I'd known they were supposed to be free I would have made sure I got it for nothing.

Find out which dealers gave it free and tell your local dealer. While you're at it ask him what other bits he can get you free, a spare engine maybe!

We don't get much for nothing!

Why pay e-bay for a potential copy when u can get it from a stealer FOC?

BMW dealers will provide a new one free of charge if you provide a chassis number.

Or at least they have done so for my M6 - they said it applies to all M cars.
