Rolf Contact Information

I've also sent Rolf 2 emails in the last month about my arrival next week. I know he was on vacation, but I'm still disappointed that he couldn't send a short reply after he returned.

It seems many of us are on our own....does anyone have a driver/service that they recommend for airport pick-up?

Rolf contacted me on the 12th. My first 2 attempts I did not get a response though but it was due to a bad e-mail address listed in one of the post.

The correct contact e-mail address is:

rolf.raffelsieper@web.de

He is a great guy and extremely helpful.

I just confirmed that Rolf will be at the airport to pick us up on 22.10 in the morning....my trip is now complete. He must be very busy these days. By the way,can anyone confirm SNOW next weel in Munich!

It got really cold today and I can confirm that my weather forecast via BMW Online in my 535d´s iDrive said snow on Sunday. Fortunately, I will be in Vienna that day.

SNOW!!! Oh no!

I emailed Rolf, received a response the next day that he will soon get back to me.

I'm planning a trip next summer. What's the story on Rolf? Does he work for BMW?

The E Mail above from Augie rolf.raffelsieper@web.de results in a delivery error message. Anyone have the correct E Mail ?

What was the error? Address looks correct.

Just a delivery failure response E Mail the 4 times that I tried to send the E Mail

give him a call..he's available since he just dropped me off at the Munich airport today...great guy and i highly recommend his service!

He picked me up last Friday for ED. Very nice chap.

Please note that due to some issues with payment of money in front of the Welt - I think having to do with cab drivers or a desired appearance that Rolf is just droping us off - I paid Rolf about a hundred yards before the Welt, and then Rolf drove us in front of the Welt entrance. He then joined us upstairs to answer any questions. Like everyone else, I recommend him.

Question about Rolf and ED...Do I have to schedule Airport/hotel pick up with him, or does BMW set that stuff up when I go over there?

If you had taken the time to read even part of the thread, you would see that people are e-mailing Rolf to schedule an appointment.

could somone recommend how far ahead I need to book with Rolf (is 4 weeks in advance enough?) I will be arriving around March 1, 2008

i booked one week in advance. rolf pickup was awesome as he arrived in a 7 series and took us around 130 on the autobahn. good luck

Four weeks is probably fine but Rolf´s schedule gets filled quickly so as soon as you know when you are arriving, you should e-mail him.

How much are we suppose to tip him?

This is a public forum which Rolf also reads.

A gift from home might be more appropriate than a tip.

I am set with Rolf for March 19th pick up.

Rolf responded to my email within 1 day and he is set to pick me up on the 17th of May

Hey Jonathan,

What would be considered a good gift from home??? Maybe a bottle of Texas hot sauce?? I think I could get that after I go through security at one of the stores in the gate areas in our airport (so the TSA sanctioned thieves would not confiscate it)...or would someone like Rolf like something else that would not be perceived as cheesy????

Cheers,

When Rolf gave us a ride to the Delivery Center last Summer, I brought him a bottle of wine from North Carolina. Yes, North Carolina, don't you West Coasters laugh. Coming from the West Coast, some NC wines are not bad actually, especially the Viogniers. Anyway, he was very appreciative and was very surprised by the gift. I think any token of your appreciation for his service would be nice.

Rolf is on the top of his game!! Confirmed a ride with him on April 30th. Thanks again Rolf!!!
