However, my VIN isn't showing up on the 2W site. Strangely, perhaps, I can see cars destined for Bremerhaven on the Mignon but haven't spotted any for Southampton. Has anybody in the UK managed to track their car on WW? |

Got Mine last Monday - it is awesome... When I get a spare min I will put some pictures up... but at the moment its covered in dead flies... Anyway on the day I received it I notices a very small chip in the paintwork (down to the metal). Its under the offside rear light cluster, on the tailgate.. I reported it on the same day I took delivery, and the dealer is going to look at it on Tuesday. I doubt the dealer will aviode liability, but I wonder how it will be dealt with... should I expect a touch up or a full resprayed tailgate ??? Your thoughts please....

We pick ours up mid-way through next week.
About time. I'm trying to get excited, but after what feels like an eternity, it's hard!

As I headed back north to Leeds tonight I saw another transporter full of prepped X3s heading south on the M1 about 30 miles south of Doncaster (I think they're prepped in Thorne?).
There was a very fetching white Msport perched on the top deck ... amazing just what detail the brain can take it at (ahem) miles an hour. It could be yooooo.

Looks like I will have to wait another week for mine. Not now due at the dealer until next Tuesday and ready for pick up at the weekend. Seems to be taking a long time to get from Southampton...

When I collected last week I asked the dealer for a delivery update: he said 'no change, still at 9 months' seems hard to believe, maybe dealers have bagged all slots and let some go to those who spec. up to £40K+ ? He also told me absolutely no more discounts on X3 since April due to demand. |

Though I'd happily accept a spot repair too- it should be undetectable. Poor luck for the OP. How did this pass PDI? |

Maybe although I still wouldn't want a resprayed panel. The paint might match but the application can't be the same as the original application

Seriously, you could not tell the difference from any competent BMW bodyshop. The durability would be the same too. |

I was contacted by my dealer the other day offering me an alternative X3 to the one I ordered for delivery in March 2012. I was certainly tempted, but the spec wasn't as good as mine and it included options I have no interest in. The buyer pulled out at the last minute. A small incentive discount was offered but the compromise was too great. It also felt wrong being someone else's car. I'll go back to my hibernation for five and a half months. I am so jealous of you lucky people who received your X3's recently.

The car you were offered must have entered production otherwise you can change the spec. right up to the last minute. Probably the dealer did not want to allow this as you wanted a lower spec. car but they always want to sell high spec.
They probably will find a buyer due to the wait time. When I picked mine up last week a F25 was in the yard too but dealer told me the 'owner' lost his job so it was 'now available' |

Gorgeous. Every time I see an Alpine White I think I should have stuck with my original order ... but then I look at my Space Grey and feel that this was also the right answer. Couldn't afford two X3s!
IMHO the white looks better without the Xline trim - the black frames in these photos look excellent. White seems to make the X3 look "chunkier" i.e. better. P.S. looks like your council are a bit OCD on the recycle front - how many bins do you guys need?!?
