The dealer phoned to say it was in Germany on the 8th May. I can calculate it was at Southampton by the 11th May, base on ship timetables. The dealer said it cleared UK customs on the 13th May.
All this is fairly slick...... then there is the 10 days it take them to get it from Southampton to Norwich..... |

Just did some research, mine I believe is on a ship called "Courage" which is due to dock in S'hampton on the 23rd (and is currently somewhere near Belgium) This would suggest i'll probably take delivery of my car on perhaps the 6th or 7th of June... if the 10-14 day average is accurate.

finally had the call for my delivery .. woohoo.
Comes into the stealer next Friday (24th).. And ready for me to pick up on the following Weds (29th). I was hoping to have it next week, but at least I have an end date now. No more "when when when" rattling around in my head.

I'll try and get hold of him.. but yes, great news and I can get excited again. I only test drove one car, and that was back in Jan. Since then, I've not even seen another M Sport on the road, so it will be a "surprise" to me again when I get in it

Your car may have been on the same boat if its getting to the dealer on the 24th. Mine will be in Norwich on the 22nd but they are turning it around for pick up by the 23rd after I "suggested" it may be best! As you say, at least we have a date and the long wait will soon be over...... |

So I just got a call from BMW
Mine is going to be delivered next Friday (31st) between 8am and 1pm. It's currently sat at the BMW distribution centre and has been allocated a VRM - so it must have been on a different boat than I had thought...!

Finally got it home
Love the looks and drive and have not noticed anything negative to so far. Even the 19" RFT which is Pirelli P Zero which i was not so shure about in advance is not that stiff as i feared. You guys really have something to look forward to Here are some pics for you :-)
