Were you tempted to defer delivery to March and get the 23 play for vanity's sake?

Nope not at all, had it been towards the middle of Feb I would have considered that mind.

I hope you enjoy your new BMW iX3, I am sure you will.

I got those emails today ahead of my rearranged delivery tomorrow.

Oh well it’s 3 weeks later than original delivery but it looks like it’s actually turning up this time

Daft thing is the 1st email from the dealer said good morning, but was sent at 4.40 this afternoon. 2nd email (which looks to be an autogenerated one from BMW) introduces me to my 330e M Sport Touring…. I’m hoping that’s wrong!

Thankfully the VIN checks out ok!

What emails 🥺🥺🥺

Supposed to be picking up "imminently" as my dealership put it...but haven't gotten any emails.

I mean... he didn't give me a date so...not sure it's even this month

Bah, was supposed to be collecting the car yesterday but was told it's still in transit and will be another 2 weeks. Anyone know what way the iX3s make their way to Ireland (Republic)? I don't know if they all go to Southampton first and forwarded on, or come direct.

Hi all !!

- Purchased in April 2022
- Date of manufacture July 28, 2022
- Somewhere on the planet until December 12, when it finally appeared in Spain
- At the dealership on January 11, 2023, the next day software update (Recall 0061400700)
- Friday the 13th delivered, the end of the nightmare...

But yes, without the 'Kick to open' feature and the writing on the idrive controller.
Also, although it seems incredible, the rear iX3 logo was missing, it is ordered from the dealer .... still waiting .... no comments

Good luck to those of you who are still waiting, the end is coming and it's worth it, it's an incredible car and the only good thing after all...

All the best !!

Thank you !!
I absolutely agree with you, they are cosmetic touch-ups but it also seems to me that it gives a new and different sporty aspect to the grill frame.

Hi all.
I really try hard to find the correct vessel which suppose to deliver my car, but I'm failing miserably. Maybe some kind soul will be better with finding the correct info.
What I know that code changed to 195. Apparently car leaved Dalian 30/01 and going towards Southampton.
But when I search for any ship which match above, I can't find any.

So my first delivery update:

The current order status is 195 - exit from port or compound. This was updated on the 3rd January 2023. This means that your new BMW iX3 is currently At Sea on it’s way to Southampton Port of Arrival.

Estimated delivery week 10 w/c 6 March.

I suppose that's good news. I'll be happier when it arrives on UK soil.


@Arek did you mean 3/1 not 30/1 ? We might be on the same ship

I am positive that the person I chat with mentioned 30/01. And delivery date is estimated for 27th of March.
That could be the next ship

I’ve just been told the same as you so guess our cars must be on the same ship. Any ideas which ship they might be on?

Not long to go now
