Got some new wheels - F11 525d MSport Carbon

Apologies for the "not so great" photos, but I thought I'd capture the moment just before I roll out of the showroom into some mucky UK weather.

525d M Sport
Sport Auto
Carbon Black
Fine Brushed Alloy Trim
19inch Wheels
Dakota Leather
Visibility Pack
Pro Media Pack
DAB radio
Auto Tailgate
Sun Protection Glass
Alloy Exterior Trim
Lumbar Support
Heated Seats

I think that's it.

First impression are really good. Coming from an Audi, I think I'm going to like it.

Car looks great!!!!!!!!

I am so envious. That's basically same car I am hoping to take delivery of next week with almost same spec.

Mine is a 530d and think I also got memory seats, panoramic roof and hifi business.

Is your exterior trim round windows matt aluminium??? I've got this and am hoping it looks good in real life as I've not seen car with it.

Even more toys...Good work!

I don't think you will be disappointed. The 6 cylinder engine is effortless and the bit of extra power in the 530 will be great.

Yes, the window trim is matt aluminium, so you have chosen well. The salesman couldn't believe how much better the car looks with the alloy roof bars and the chrome door trim only the 3.0l cars have over the standard black surrounds.

Hope the wait isn't too agonising!

Very nice, but I think shadowline looks much better.

You mentioned you'd come from an Audi, which model? I've come from an A6 Avant, waiting for my F11 to arrive, so I'd be interested in any comparisons. Certainly the interior in the A6 suddenly felt quite dated as soon as I'd sat in the five....
