My Ride: 530D , Msport, Deep Sea Blue , Cream Beige Dakota , Due April 2007.
Checked with the dealer this week , we ordered 2 a sliver and blue both 530d and were promised for first week of April , so we were keeping the pressure on with a few phone calls.
Was told 3 weeks at least , car has left the factory but here's the excuse ::
"1 car has has been released to carrier which means it will be here within 10-11 days, the blue one, the other 1 has just left the factory. The problem lies with the transportation availabilty in the UK, April is when they roll out the new registrations, the irish market also puts extra demands on BMW to ship the cars here for the end of March, which is the end of our first quarter, there is just not enough car carriers to cover the excess transportation demands. Unfortunately, we do not have any control over this so I can only apologise to you with regards this delay."
Any comments from UK members? Any Irish having the same S-H-ONE-T !!

So "April" is BS.
