This might be rubbish and I have no evidence to back this up but I thought I read something somewhere when I ordered that they can only take the £1000 if they have to sell your car to someone else for less than the price you agreed, and then you would only lose the whole £1,000 if they had to sell for £1,000 less than the price you agreed

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your order!! Very nice spec and I've not seen many UK SB X3 orders on here so it will stand out from the crowd.

If that 12-14 weeks proves accurate you're going to wind up a lot of members who in ordered last month and have Sept/Oct as a delivery date

It does depend on dealer allocation so you may get lucky but I would assume that 12-14 weeks is very optimistic to avoid disappointment.

Sorry for bringing this issue up again...I know it has been discussed on quite a few threads before. Is anyone aware of X3s with either Havannah Brown or Red Brown interiors in dealers around East Midlands/ London? I'm torn between the two. I've seen Red Brown on a X1 before but never a Havannah Brown. My car is due for production in mid May and I still have the option to change one way or the other.

I've seen pics of both these interiors throughout the forum but difficult to really get the feel of it for obvious reasons. Currently I've gone for the Red Brown with fineline wave trim...same as alpineweiss's combo...those pics seems to be closest to true colour I've seen on images.

Thanks in advance.

Arggh!!

Now been given build week 40, then I pressume 6 weeks after that for delivery. All equates to pick up around 14 Nov. Ordered on 10 Feb, so this equates total of 9 months, 4 days, from order to delivery in the UK.

Meaning it's officially now quicker to produce a baby than an X3!

Sorry to hear that. 9 months is way too long. Looks like new orders placed now might not even be delivered before Christmas!

Er, not sure how to break this gently but you may want to update the ETA on your signature

That sucks! I feel for you. On the other hand, just to make you feel a tad better, I'll tell you that I was supposed to take delivery of my X3 (built at the end of December) at the end of January / early February, and so far I have not yet managed to do so - and not through my own fault. To think that my X3 had to lay dormant for months with no chance of getting to it is indeed quite harsh.

In no particular order: 2.0d SE, Titanium Silver, Prof Media, Brush Alu trim, Sport Seats, Electric Boot, Heated front seats, Sport Steering Wheel, VDC, Servo Steering, Xenon lights, xLine Pack, DAB, Auto Gearbox, Performance Control, Extended Storage, Sun glass, rear blinds, front windscreen with top grey band.

The voice msg I got left today was build week 40, expect delivery early Oct, but as week 40 is Oct, and it seems about 6 weeks from build to delivery, I am expecting Nov for pickup.

Great spec, it would have been easier to list the options you didnt order

Good news of sorts.

Ordered Mid-December for beginning of March delivery. Revised to April delivery.

Now in production but will take 7 weeks to deliver from ... Austria? Yes, that's how up to date the dealership is.
