Are you going for the full M performance body kit, stripes, grill etc??

I too wanted a delivery date pre April 1st. My build date is mid February. Shockingly unfair change of road fund licence rules from 1st April 2017 without much publicity... funny that! Seems purely about taxing people who are believed to be able to afford it, rather than dealing with the root cause.

I understand from my dealer that the key is for the car to be in the UK (Doncaster distribution) in order for the dealer to be able to register it, and not at your dealership. I'd still prefer to have the comfort of it being "physical" at the dealer to be sure, but a backup position perhaps? I'd be interested if your dealer takes this view too. Hope that helps.
21" alloys 599M
Front carbon splitter
Side skirts markings
Rear Carbon diffuser
Rear Carbon flaps
Roof spoiler
Gloss black kidney grills
Could change the tailpipe trims to chrome as part of the pack but keeping as M50d spec'd in black
Could change the mirror fronts to carbon finish but keeping them as M50d spec'd
NO go fast stripes as this would spoil the look of this premium brand car

Yes lets all meet up in the Spring if everyone in UK up for it - ideas of venue?

Cheers Greg
