Good Question. I'm getting mine on Friday 30th, but they are delivering it to me on the strict proviso I don't drive it until Sunday.

I am missing exciting colours - most offered colours for the 5-series are boring. Why don't they have a red, or a nice bright blue like the M5 comes in?

Afternoon all, this is my first post also.

Coming from an E60 520d M Sport with all the toys. Space grey with black dakota leather.

My new F10 LCI is coming in Space Grey with Oyster/Black dakota leather with contrasting stitching, 520d M Sport with a few toys to bring it upto my
E60 and beyond, expected delivery is 1st week of November

Extra's:
M Sport Plus which is 19's, Harman Kardon HiFi, sun protection glass and boot spoiler
Sports auto with paddles
Pro media with enhanced bluetooth
Multi Function black display
Ambient Lighting
Folding mirrors

I am a bit nervous as never bought a new car before, always buying a car that is physically there, if you know what I mean. The e60 has been brilliant so looking forward to it immensely.

Judging by the date of the post above, lead times from order to delivery have fallen a bit

Hi all,

Just had my order confirmed for a 535d M-Sport in Alpine White having downsized to a single car 3 years ago it will be nice to have "my own" car again.

Extras
M-Sport Plus Pack
Advanced Parking Pack
Comfort Pack
Media Pack
Heads Up Display
Multi Function Display
Split-Fold rear seats

November build, expecting delivery mid-December, but the sooner the better

Will be my first BMW, but drive the mother-in-laws 530d M-Sport whenever she visits

I thought the sports auto was no longer available on the 520d from LCI? Just the normal auto....

I was in at my dealer yesterday. I thought they were getting a move on when they said they should have my 530d by 16th November. Now their system is showing 6th. I might not be able to hold off until 1st December if that's the case.

Why would you want to hold off until Dec?

I was gonna hold off until December if it was gonna be the later half of the month, just as a justification for spending more than I should have (i.e. missing another months payment on my old car meaning I could split it over the cost of this one. Silly really I know, but it's an extra pay day, and that's how my mind works. Plus I'm Scottish, so tight as... Don't want to pay for 2 weeks road tax I aint using, lol).

But if it's going to be at the dealership in the early part of November, I wont be able to, or want to wait that long.

You can tax for 12 months and 1, 2, or 3 weeks!

Anybody know roughly how long it takes to get to a dealer once the cars shipped. Apparently, mine has been loaded and is making its way to the UK ....but dealer is still saying 3 weeks until pick up, but that sounds a little long to me. Anyone know a rough lead time once they arrive in the UK?
