BMW 330e ordered...

Ordered my 330e through Lex Autolease back in early February and got a provisional delivery date in July. I've been following this forum for a while and when I heard there may be significant delays due to the level of demand I asked Lex to see if my order was affected ... luckily not and I was still due for a July delivery. Fast forward to last Thursday and it now turns out my order is affected and I should expect delivery sometime in December. Gutted doesn't quite cover it! Anyone who has ordered through Lex may be best checking with them to see if their delivery has slipped (I only noticed as an update was posted on the portal).
I'd gone for an M Sport in mineral grey with M403 19's and quite a few other toys. Still think I'll hang on and wait but I am tempted to look elsewhere.
I too ordered via Lex (late Jan/ early Feb), and after reading this thread I had the same worries. Lex have assured me the delivery is 26th of June, and I'm hoping that's true!!

Gone for the M-sport in White with coral red leather and 19" M403 wheels.

My order was raised at the end of January through Leasedrive/zenith. The delivery to dealer date has been 14 July ever since with delivery to me on 21 July. Today it has changed to 23 June which I assume is to the dealer so I may get it 3 weeks earlier than I thought. Happy days 
Congrats! The waiting is a killer! I have 20th to the dealer and to me the 27th, hope my order comes forward.johnduq said:
Hi can anyone tell me if the basic 330e comes with led lights it's not to clear they refer to led lights but they maybe just the running lights or dip only like the i3. Cheers Jon
Msport comes with full LED headlights as standard I think.. The other models come with halogen headlights with LED DRL's, or you can upgrade to full LEDWell, I've literally just watched the Arabian Breeze depart Cuxhaven with my car on it!
I even checked with Genius and they now have it as 9620 at Sea... YAY!!!
Below is a picture from a webcam at Cuxhaven of the Arabian Breeze, it arrives at Southampton at 2300 tomorrow 3rd May
Well.... I'm located in Helsinki, Finland, so they won't be on the same ship. I've been given an estimate of June 17th, but normally deliveries happen little under six weeks from the build date. So I'm expecting the delivery to be around the 1st of June.

May have already been asked, but does anyone know if there are plans for a Touring "e?"
I'm close to ordering a phev as need the extra room, but would prefer a touring if there is such a thing in the pipeline?
A Touring would be my preferred option, but I remember reading that BMW expected the most demand to be in China and the US, where the market for estates isn't as big. Why they completely under estimated the demand in the UK is beyond me. I'm close to ordering a phev as need the extra room, but would prefer a touring if there is such a thing in the pipeline?
Merc do an estate of their C350e, and a tow bar option too, but their CO2 figures are not quite as good as the 330e.
