My order placed on the 25th of March is now saying 9th of august when it was originally the 3rd of July delivery date.
Going to be 2 months without a car now... not sure why they’re saying September to you.
Debating cancelling even though my deal is unreal.
Would watch that date as I placed mine on the 24th March… Going to be 2 months without a car now... not sure why they’re saying September to you.

David assures me it should move back but how can he when it’s BMW who have control not AC
But David contacted me asking why I spoke to bmw and assured me I would get my car sooner than august.
What was the date in March you ordered?
ks.So many mixed stories about ride quality.
The demo 135i we had on 18s and non-adaptive was fine, easily as planted as my old 7R & S3, ride was firm but fair.
I did test drive the car in Ipswich, which is about 50 miles from where i live so i made sure i had an extended drive and brought the car back home etc, it seemed very pleasant.
Surely this can't just be personal preference, i wonder what is going on?

Sounds like i dodged a bullet when I decided not to order with AC. Many stories of poorly presented vehicles, incorrect spec, ongoing delays, orders not processed properly, delivery issues etc on this thread. Was and still is a good deal but when you weigh it up it's not as good as it first seemed.
It's not too bad pal I had spec issues which BMW have acknowledged so no fault of AC. When the parts arrive AC have agreed to pick mine up, fit the parts, full valet and drop back off. Yeah delays won’t be anything to do with AC, would be the same from any lease company. Just frustrating that there’s delays but not much you can do. I’m just impatient haha
I didn’t test drive one but I have not any of my last 3 cars and they was fine… I can guarantee that both the 128ti and M135i won’t be as harsh as my FN2 Type R was so all good

Ordered my M135i late March and all the updates have said late June to the dealer. After seeing the updates here, I contacted AC to see if there's been any change and got a reply this morning from David to say that's still the plan, late June at dealer - however he did say that they were speaking with BMW today to get an update on late March orders and would advise today/tomorrow if there was any change.
Would be easier if they just gave the BMW order number out, but they just keep saying we don't do that!

Like others, I also had a good experience. Quote 22 Feb, Finance approved 24 Feb, order submitted 2 March and car delivered 1 June. Lots of email updates. They easily applied my private plate. The car did arrive a little dirty, but the spec was correct, interior was very clean. I would go again.JohnnyDrama said:

Inchcape gave me the order number the moment they had it. Hopefully there's nothing dodgy with them not supplying it, but i think if i were in your shoes i'd be pushing for the order number now.Would be easier if they just gave the BMW order number out, but they just keep saying we don't do that!

My guess is so they can keep control of the process and also justify people’s jobs… Select car leasing never shared details on my merc lease

To be honest I'm not in a rush to get it, as I've got my Cupra on an informal extension and would probably be best for me for it to be pushed back to late July/August anyway - but I'd like to know!Steve vRS said:
I’ve not read the manual yet but is there a way to show the journey average fuel consumption in the main dashboard display?
On the screen to the left, I've set fuel consumption screen to one of the pre set memory shortcut keys for the screen on the left. You have he option of:Since start of journey
Since refuel
Since leaving factory
Since manual reset
Behind the steering wheel on the display when in eco mode, the MPG is on a slider on the top right. It shows you the average and needle shows current.
