UK lead time - new order

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hi all, does anyone know the rough lead time in the UK at the moment? I've ordered a Phytonic Blue to replace my dull A6 company car and decided to hand the Audi back early as it's not being used. Currently quoted June for the X3M but no idea how accurate that is?

Looking forward to getting back in a quick car!

I ordered mid October with an expected lead time of late March for delivery.

Car actually arrived at the dealer towards the end of Jan, collecting March 1st (X4MC)

Thanks, hopefully June is just a placeholder then and I get it much earlier.

Did you manage to get a test drive before buying?

Are you as nervous as me then or do you know you've bought the right car?

I'm leasing at just under £800 a month with 3 months down over 3 years and 15k a year. Works out less expensive than my company A6 Avant even when I've factored insurance and everything in.

I currently have my local dealer's demo, which is a MY21 with 50 miles on the clock. Those of you waiting nervously and considering whether you've picked the right car, don't. It's a fabulous vehicle overall for what it is. Ok it's not as soft and supple as the X5 I currently have, is a bit noisier etc but I'm sure a standard X3 is as well and it's definitely not the horror story I was led to believe on U.K. (read terrible) roads.

Excellent news. I would have ordered an M3 but have 3 dogs and mountain bikes!

Figure it can't be as hard as an old Civic Type R I had. The missus hated that 😂
