Where was this?!
G2L = Gateway2lease.Deals are all gone now though im afraid.
I thought a Range was a good idea, unfortunately dragging the best part of 3 tonne around on 180 ponies doesn't live up to my S3 or R32!

Mine in coming up to 12,000 and is predicting a service at 25,000 miles. It asked for 1l of oil last week though.
I'm glad you mentioned this. I've done 320 miles and mine has dropped to 18k and i'm following the running in procedure by the book! If it carries on like this it'll need a service at 6k 
What oil did you use?

Within the first 1k ours dropped to 18k for the next service. It then went back up to 19k and has been there since.
Brake pads have another 35k left too.
It will still need a service though before the lease ends based on time rather than mileage.
What if you hand it back a week early thus avoiding the two year deadline?Brake pads have another 35k left too.

Ah - not sure, I drove it to the nearest BMW gargage and asked them to top it up - was part of the service packWhat oil did you use?
Ok, i'll check the owners manual about the oil on the dash display 
I took my mate out in mine last night, I think I may have frightened him a bit as he didn't want to have a drive, that's the first one he's refused of the many I've offered. I've had to set the speed warning as it's getting very easy to fly down a and b roads.
I've asked my local dealer about setting a key profile so the sport setting is on by default but they don't think it's possible
I'm still waiting for CVL to take the deposit, does anyone know how long they usually take?

The underwriters are about 2 weeks behind at the moment, so about 2 weeks.I took my mate out in mine last night, I think I may have frightened him a bit as he didn't want to have a drive, that's the first one he's refused of the many I've offered.

Yours is through Knights isn't it? Who have you been dealing with at the dealership? I want to contact someone at Knights and find out when it is arriving with them and how long until I can collect...Mine turns up monday, yay!

FWIW mine is being flatbedded to me and I'm about 130 miles away from the dealer.

What kind of reactions have people been getting from other road users? I've been quite surprised, been asked on a couple of occasions at the fuel pumps by people genuinely interested in the car,what engine etc. Wasnt really expecting that as the car is pretty subtle to be honest.
2 people have asked me if it's a diesel before I've started it up 
2 different Astra VXR's have sat on my rear bumper wanting to race - i'm still running it in so let them go (not that i'm in to road racing).
My neighbour loves the sound on start up.
Mine arrived 
(CVL, 1st week of Jan order, base spec)
Very different hand over experience from you guys, he parked the car on my drive (it came out of a box lorry), he told me to check it over then gave me the keys, had me sign the paperwork and left.
No checking for insurance, no "telling me the controls" (thankfully). I'm not complaining, just saying.
Mine arrived with 7 miles on. Just had it out for a hoon and my suspicions are confirmed. While it's a VERY good every day car, it's not special like an M car, and maybe I've been spoilt by the M3 noise but it sounds pretty poor too.
Also, for some reason I was CONVINCED even the base spec came with satnav. Apparently not Has this been a change recently?
The new steering wheel is lovely, and the speed limiter is a good enough replacement for not being able to spec the comfort pack
