BMW Recycling.
Your BMW is the product of a comprehensive recycling concept. But what exactly does this
mean in practice? It means that all the requirements of recycling are taken into account from
the start, in the initial development of a BMW. One example is the choice of materials carefully
selected to preserve resources and ensure efficient recycling compatible with the environment.
Each BMW is designed and built for simple and economic recycling after its running life. We
have been collecting the know-how required for this purpose ever since 1994 at the unique
BMW Recycling and Dismantling Centre (RDC) near Munich. Please contact your BMW partner
on all matters regarding the return of your end-of-life vehicle. He will be happy to advise.
The models illustrated in this brochure show the specifications for the German market. In part,
they include optional equipment and accessories not fitted as standard. According to the
specific requirements of other markets, alterations in models, standard and optional equip-
ment, as described in the text and illustrations, may occur. For precise information, please
contact your BMW partner. Subject to change in design and equipment.

Unladen weight applies to vehicles with standard equipment. Options and special equipment
may increase this figure.
2Electronically limited.
3The engine of the BMW M6 Coupé and the BMW M6 Convertible is designed for RON 98
fuel. Use of RON 95 or 91 fuel reduces engine output.
4The engine of the BMW M6 Coupé and the BMW M6 Convertible fulfils the EU4 emission
standard. Fuel consumption is determined in the ECE driving cycle made up of approximately
one-third urban and two-thirds overland driving (measured in terms of mileage covered). CO2
emissions are measured in addition to fuel consumption. Optional equipment (such as wider
tyres) can have a significant impact on fuel consumption.
Optional extras are available fully installed straight from the factory. For additional extras see
the extensive catalogue of accessories at your BMW partner. BMW Individual will be happy to
help should you wish your dream BMW to include features not listed here. To find a package
that perfectly suits what you have in mind, simply contact your BMW partner for assistance.
