Even BMW don’t trust their vehicle for shuttle, isn’t that a bad sign when you go into that dealership ? Lol

    Well BMW doesn’t make a minivan and an SUV pretending to be a minivan by stuffing a third row into it just doesn’t cut it when you’re trying to transport 5+ adults at the same time.

    Can’t beat the spaciousness of a minivan. Three times the cargo space behind the third row which can actually accommodate adults comfortably.

    luxury car dealers do this a lot, high chance that’s just an employee using it to ferry parts/documents around too

    Heh. My dealer uses Mercedes Sprinter vans for shuttle and parts deliveries. It’s funny to see them in the Mercedes’ dealership down the street when they go in for repairs with a giant bmw logo on the side 🤪

    Their only alternatives for a spacious vehicle would be a Mercedes or Ford sprinter, and one would be too expensive and the other would end up breaking on the way there

    It’s probably just that dealer group owns a BMW and a Toyota dealership.

    Sienna makes sense, because the utility is amazing on either using the third row or putting it flat to get tons of stuff in there.

    when toyota doesn’t trust themselves to build a supra. I don’t know why this is a shock. a lot of parts departments rock ford transits or chevys expresses. is what it is when it comes to practical cars for the need.

    you’d have something if a had bmw minivans
