BMW 330e ordered...

[col2e]

Funny enough, since BMW put me in a loan car, my delivery date has now moved forward. Delivery in 10 days.

Best of luck to those awaiting news.

Must say, the 330d they put me in is slightly better spec'd than mine, so will be mixed emotions when I hand it back!

I enquired yesterday about ordering another 330e and have been told I can have one for June but I need to confirm the spec ASAP as there are only a few amendable build slots left. I was told production is stopping due to a change in batteries which has already halted Mercedes and VW PHEV orders combined with the new 3 Series in October.

Now thinking I should wait and see if the new 3 Series has better range.

Was told yesterday by BMW that there are only 200 build slots left.

If you charge from 3 pin plug: when setting departure time in the app, make sure you set it for around 40 minutes before your actual departure.

Otherwise you`ll start your journey with the battery on 90% rather than 100%.

Looks like mixed messages from the BMW dealers, I’ve been told I won’t be able to get one

Any recommendations for a charge point installer?

Thanks

These did mine

ended up costing £49 with Christmas offer and then they couldn’t fit within 10 days so gave me £50 back

Three weeks until mine is delivered according to BMW genius and the dealer, has been on order since 15 October! - M Sport in Tanzanite blue with 19" alloys plus a few toys. Any recommendations for a charge point installer?

Thanks

Congrats and you’re lucky to have a date!! My tanzanite shadow edition was ordered on 10th October and I’ve still not got a confirmed date other than “mid March”. I guess our cars will be brothers from the same build run!

Doesn't appear to be any logic to order dates v delivery. Mine was ordered 22nd Jan, delivery date of 30th March however I have a colleague in NI who ordered 2nd Jan and has a date in May.

Mine arrived yesterday . Only pottering around mileage so far . But seems pretty groovy. My oldest daughter described it as variously peng, beautiful and delicious. I had no idea she appreciated cars and have rarely heard her so florid.

If I can’t get the 330e it’s a 320d M Sport Shadow Edition Auto for me which will unfortunately cost me an additional £120 p/month in tax which I won’t be looking forward to but can’t face having a Mondeo or Passat for 4 years

My alternative was new Volvo XC40. Went to launch night this week but no news on PHEV version yet. If not 330e dont know which way to go as wanted BIK saving.
