BMW 530e delays? (or G30 delays)

[A-Badger]

Anybody else got a 530e on Order?

I ordered early Feb, originally told May, the June, now scheduled for Week 30 (end of July).

Maybe it's G30 capacity overall.

Build of mine has accelerated. It's being delivered to me on Monday, which is a month quicker than it was originally planned.

2 sleeps to go :-)

How are you getting on with your new car?

Very happy so far. Getting mid twenty miles on Battery, which means on my 15 mile commute to work ( fast A roads through edge of Peak district, urban at either end) I've seen over 200mpg. 340 miles over all so far, on about 4/10 of a tank. So something like 75-80mpg average.

Electric only is surprisingly swift and very responsive at low speed, so give an impression of lightness by getting moving very easily. Silent in this mode and not much louder with the ice running (which can be hard to notice in the change over). The new interior is very good, as is idrive 6 and the digital dash. Ride and handling seems ok (SE on 18") only strange thing is that the steering in comfort does not auto-centre strongly so needs forcing straight in the last 45 degrees rather than just accelerating and it pulls straight.

Going to find time for it's first detail this weekend so will post some pictures then.
