UK F15/F16 Delivery for March '15 new plate
Hi everyone,
This post is primarily aimed at UK posters but anyone feel free to contribute! Who is expecting a car to be delivered for March 2015 new plate? What status has your car got to? Is it normal for the car to land in the UK just say 2wks before delivery? Any help would be appreciated, the wait is agonising! Our American fellows get their cars in 6wks!!!!!!! Regards SDRX

I picked up my F16 last week and it arrived via boat from USA and Southampton late Dec, late Nov build, then went to BMW UK vehicle preparation centre at South Yorkshire and then the dealer scheduled it for delivery on 19 Jan - I could have had it a bit earlier. Mine took 7 months for delivery! I ordered early though to get confirmed early delivery of first X6 into UK. I think 2 weeks before seems fine.

I'm expecting the car to land in the UK within the next 2 wks. Addicted to the power of M50d engine? Truly is world class.

Agree, wait is painful along with delays due to this that and the other. IT WILL BE WORTH IT though. Are you planning any mods or adding Alloy Gators to protect those shiny new wheels? I can recommend 'em. All the best and hang on in there! |

Can send you some shots of mine; I had them fitted to both set of summer and winter wheels. PM me and I will reply when at home later. Have you looked at the M Performance kit? I think that comes with the M Brakes as part of the package. |

I'll definitely look at because even with surround view I have to admit to occasional alloy skirmish! Yeh I'm negotiating on the purchase of various M performance bits for the car but at the moment we are waiting for reply from BMW UK clarifying whether the service pack will cover costs of M brakes or not. Did you get any paint sealant put on?

I would be interested in having pictures of the Gators too. My wife has trashed the alloys on by 535d and I am already panicking about the X5 40d and it still 3 months away
