Hi guys.
I´m wondering who among you ordered a photo build record with his M3W and how long you had to wait for it after you already got handout your M3W?
Thanks for your answers.

I ordered the build book - and assumed it would be delivered with the car - that appears to clearly not be the case.
My delivery should be in mid September...

Mine is a thing of beauty. Superb quality saddle leather album and lots of the individual photos interspersed with "stuff" about the history etc of the marque. It will be worth waiting for!

I ordered a build book and at one of the MOG Great Lakes meetings, one of the guys who had their 3 wheeler shipped with mine brought his build book along to share. Wondering how someone whos 3 wheeler was built after mine already had his and I hadn't heard a word I contacted the dealership and inquired.
Luckily I had a copy of my original order sheet that showed that I had ordered a build book, so I scanned it in and emailed that to the dealership. Within a few days I was being included in on email correspondence between the dealership and the factory as to what had happened to my build book, and from what I gathered was the factory either just forgot, or misplaced my book someplace, and it was never sent.
So, a build book was hastily made for me, including photos of who knows whos 3 wheeler being built, color and options seem on but in the front there is a page listing all of your vehicles specifics and mine states that it was built in July of 2013 as that is when the build book was put together. Another forum member, and a local 3 wheeler owner, had her name spelt incorrectly on the same page of her build book, which arrived before her 3 wheeler by a few weeks.

OK. Guess I got the same problem as Mi3Wheeler.
My M3W was ready built around mid of april and I still wait for the built book.
I was told by the dealer that it will take a couple of month to get it done.
...Let me think: they built the M3W faster than do the standard pics in an standard layout and print them. --> there is something wrong in this picture.... isn´t it?
I´m a bit worried that my "Dealer" or the factory (MMC) forgot to order it and I will get some pics of another M3W with almost the same color (cause i ordered my M3W in connaught green and not sports green).
Will there be some reference pics with the FIN or the frame number in this photo book?
This feels like when you retired and you looking for memories on baby photos from your neighbors child, cause you don't have any baby photos from your own child... Ok. you can´t really compare that, but I guess you get my idea...
So I will wait and see...

Got my M3W in March and the build book about a month later.
Well worth the money and a lovely item to have ... everyone should have ordered one as I can see this being an important document when you come to sell the M3W.
I too wondered whether some of the photos were of other vehicles as it is impossible to tell from some of the pix. Mine is a one off light blue so it is easier to recognise as the embryo vehicle develops.
