Yes you can put down £1K to reserve your build slot. I've been told Nov for all the finance detail to be released in full. I've had once built on the dealer configuration tool and have been given a quote. If i wanted to pay asking price I could have placed the order right then. I wanted to haggle so I was told to come back in Nov.

GFV is around the £24k mark for 4 year PCP dependent on options. Roughly £9k deposit would result in £500 monthlies. |

...and button pushed on the M40i
Let the waiting begin. Went for the Phytonic Blue, Cognac Seats, adaptive suspension, upgraded HK stereo, Head Up Display, Apple Carplay and Enhanced BT - That will do it.. Will let you know when I get a build slot, anyone else ordered in UK? LL |

Yes, the cars are arriving this weekend to a lot of dealers......
I looked very closely at sunroof but turned it down due to costs and weight addition.....I lightened up the leather as a consequence.... |

Saw a couple of examples today up in Chester.
Huge improvement IMO on the past Car. Night and Day. The blue looks superb and all wheel choices look very very nice. The leather IMO was a tiny increment though over Dakota. I wish to see it in the brown though as it was just black in the showroom.

Coast to coast found me a dealer who was prepared to discount almost 8% on the M40i for anyone looking to order soon I'm the UK.
We are in no hurry so test driving a few options in the class and then will wait to see how the deals look next year. The finance deal I was offered was 48 months 60k miles and the final payment was £21k, which sounds like bmw aren't expecting residuals to be all that great on those.

I had a missed call from the local dealer today. Tomorrow I will find out when I can test drive it. I'm very happy with F25 and will consider the hybrid or electric version of the G01 when available in 2019/2020.

Went and had a look at a couple yesterday at the local dealership. These cars look so much better in real life. I thought it was an X5 in the showroom at first. It's got a lot more presence then the previous and the interior is a huge step up in quality. In fact it makes my F80 M3 look cheap and dated.
Got to go for a drive in the 20d m-sport. It was a pretty high spec with the acoustic glass, 20inch wheels, HK, etc. Very planted and quiet on the road and the 2L diesel always surprises me with the amount of go it has. Even on 20in and with m-sport suspension the ride wasn't too hard so 21's with adaptive on the M40 should be great. The new seats with the blue contrast stitching look nice and are very comfy with plenty of adjustment. I'm 6'2" and the car feels nice and spacious. Plenty of leg and head room. The view out over the bonnet (hood ?) is nice with the crease lines giving it a more aggressive look. Overall, really impressed. Really looking fwd to my M40 now ?, although looking like delivery won't be until late Jan ?. |

I have ordered Sunstone, it is on the build & price engine for BMW in the Netherlands. Like many (most) colours on the X3, its tone will vary according to the ambient light. Apparently, it is available as of December production along with Merino leather seating (in my case Tartuffo). Last edited by Slalom; 11-13-2017 at 08:04 AM.. Reason: clarification on availability |

But it will be interesting to see ongoing photo contributions from Forum Members of their G01s in different lighting and locations as a more rounded idea of how the paint will look can then be achieved it seems. |

Merino Leather
UK just released the three Merino leather options - love the texture of this so def going with it but it's not available in simple black! So have to choose between red/black (mainly red - somewhat garish especially the rear seat which is all bright red), tartufo (odd shade of brown) or white (beautiful but will be stained with blue jeans very quickly). Any thoughts? What are others choosing?

Phytonic, Black with Blue stitching. Thought of going with the the Cognac to make it a little brighter inside. The other half said not a chance so I cut a deal and got the sun roof
Rest of the build - Tech Pack, Adaptive M Suspension, Acoustic side glass, Sun Prot, Anti-dazzle mirrors, Extended Storage, Driving Assis, Active cruise, Harman/Kardon..oh and a tow bar. |
