Already carried out a 6 month extension because I was struggling to find a car I wanted, can’t extend another time.

A £400 shed for a few weeks?

I ordered my 135i on March 23rd with an estimated delivery date of around 12-16 weeks, initial delivery was July 03 which I was happy with. About a month after this I have had my order put back to august the 3rd instead.

My cupra goes back June the 14th next week so I was happy being without a car for 2 weeks but not sure if I can cope for like 6 weeks...

M135i
Storm bay
Pro pack
maintenance included.
8k miles PA

3 month deposit £352.00 x 35.

The deal is too good to cancel just can’t believe it’s been pushed back a month and I’ll be without a car for so long.

Was this via AC?

I placed mine on the same day as you via AC and have always been told the 1st week in August so it fits…

Yeah same!

Random how they told you July but me August and we ordered on the same day! And now yours has magically changed to August.

Must admit as good as the deal is from them the updates and info coming out of AC hasn’t been the greatest…

That is a good deal, imo.

Yeah but as I’ve read through this whole thread I’ve noticed a lot of peoples expected delivery dates been held back a month, they tried offering me two different vehicles that had been cancelled but nowhere near the spec I wanted.

Just had update from Arnold Clark. 128ti with Tech pack ordered 26/03/2021.

Been chasing AC for while now asking for a build date. Finally been told the estimated delivery is week 41(October 12th). Also the wireless charging and advanced bluetooth has been removed from order due to component shortage. They have reduced monthly payment by £6 (whoopeee I can buy a pint)

Was half expectng the news, but it is what it is :-)

Ordered the exact same, although in May. Looks like mine will be here for Xmas haha

I also wonder if any of the ones you have all ordered will change in specification. I note that BMW have recently made some changes on what you can and can't order on the 1 series.

Last week if you ordered the comfort pack to have the boot and wireless charging you wouldn't get the wireless charging option shipped through as it was a deleted line and so was the gesture control under the boot with your foot.

Now they have changed the specification, leather was standard on an M Sport now it's a £1150 cost option. Also seems the M Sport has gone too...

Mines arriving in two weeks so we will see....but noticeably it was built prior to all the changes.

All of you that still have outstanding orders, not even sure what you will get.

Just a FYI……

You can switch between Sport and Sport Individual by pressing the Sport button (with Sport individual you can set steering, engine, gearbox to either Sport or Comfort to customise as desired).
It also remembers your last Sport setting (either full on Sport or Sport Individual on an engine off/lock scenario).

I have set Sport Individual on mine to steering and transmission to comfort, engine to Sport, this should also open the other exhaust flap (in comfort it doesn’t open).

I dont RTFM hence I didn’t know until today!

[Gunslinger18]

Got my car delivered (yay) but they never put the red decals on it. Looks like a standard 1 series. It's also go P0 instead of PS4 tyres.

Have you checked the order sheet to make sure it doesn’t say decal delete?

PZero are a performance tyre, you aren’t guaranteed they are going to be PS4.

Have you got it sorted? I’m paranoid about my red bits now! I doubt I’m a good enough driver to spot the difference between the tyres.

Sales guy had it on the order as did Harry Fairbairn so been raised with BMW. Not sure when I'll find out what the scoop is. Car was filthy when delivered too. Oh and it was drove from the compound so had 20 miles on it. Kinda took the shine off it tbh.

Jeez they’ve cocked your order up haven’t they. Hope they compensate you reasonably

[Tony Angelino]

Takes the shine off, doesn't it? Mine came dusty and a bit dirty inside with cardboard protection still taped to the doors, I reported it via email within an hour of arrival and they agreed to covering the cost of a valet. I am promised the cheque has been sent to me but no sign as yet.

Hope you get sorted.

Big time! I had plastic covers over front seats and carpets weren't down. Just hope the PDI was done correctly.

Had my 135 for nearly 2 weeks now - noticed when I have the windows open that in 1st/2nd gear the engine sounds noticeably ‘rattly’ under load, with really loud turbo whistle too - is everyone else’s the same? It doesn’t sound very smooth in those gears but is fine once it gets up to 3rd - never been in one of these before so nothing to compare it against….don’t want to waste time getting it looked at if it’s just normal
