Mr Dunn’s passion for motorcycles runs deep, starting in his youth and continuing to this day. He enjoys both on- and off-road riding, and his current favourite motorcycle is the BMW F 900 GS. This enthusiasm reflects his strong connection to the BMW Motorrad brand. His passion, combined with extensive professional experience, interpersonal skills, and leadership capabilities makes him uniquely qualified to lead BMW Motorrad Australia in its next phase of growth.
Mr Dunn succeeds Andreas Lundgren, who will continue to play a role in the company’s success in his new position as Managing Director of BMW Financial Services in New Zealand. Mr Buechel expressed his gratitude to Mr Lundgren for driving ongoing transformation and sales growth, including record-breaking sales to close the year.
