Yep and miss ). No don't think you did. There were a number of VNs which were really close to mine on the ship. Just not mine. Did anyone go for the chrome exhaust end? Do you know if you have to pay to fit? Got one on order but garage not sure.

Are you getting a titanium look front grille too? I'm in two minds so will pick up without and then decide after.

Not thought about that one ummm. Probably get without and add later if I think it needs it. Getting it delivered on 3rd Mar to hit the new plate. Not sure I can wait another 2 weeks... But suppose what's another 2 weeks after such a long wait! At least i can now get rid of the well thumbed brochure from the bedside!!!!!

Spoke to my dealer (obviously I called back, my 11:30 call was never returned) and my X3 is apparently on a transporter and they're expecting it tomorrow so I can pick up next week. No chance of an 11 plate unless I pay VAT @ 20% which would cost me £1100 so def not worthwhile. I get the impression that delaying the pick up would make no difference to the reg. Will know delivery date tomorrow

... and today I finally got confirmation from my dealer. But for me it wasn't that my car's in the country it was that they've finally received the order from my fleet company. ETD: Sep-Oct 2011. Ouch.

1. Wait until May when Obama comes to the UK (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-12497265) 2. Kidnap him 3. Tell America that they're not having him back until they honour their so called special relationship with the UK and fast track all UK orders at Spartanburg

However, even though I like Mr Obama and what he's trying to do for my country, you might find your plan backfiring if implemented. There are plenty of Americans who would probably be very happy to trade Mr. O. for a boatload of new X3's. Be careful what you wish for! |

Date confirmed as 7th October so I'm now in "it's just a car mode" which of course explains the irony me being on the forum on a Friday evening.
I'm thinking of the positives ... by then the cold weather package will be useful immediately I'm still in an Audi A5 which is under 3 years old and that's still a cracking car ... it's just starting to get a bit cramped in the back for my two boys. I'm just hoping BMW can up their production rate. I saw this happen with the A5 which was also a new model when I ordered it. And the big plus, of course, is that you guys will have ironed out all the niggles by the time mine gets here. I relish the schadenfreude of posting how my car's arrived with updated firmware etc as some of you are posting about your cars being back in the workshop again and how it's been there more than it's been on the road Bitter? Me? No....

I could have picked up today but it's my son's 1st birthday party and hectic!! I also have some last minute negotiating going on re. the '11 plate that needs to be resolved first. Should have a date on Monday (finally)
