I never ever thought i'd order a new car.... To be honest i've been an Alfa Romeo fan most of my life since learning to drive in a little Alfasud at the age of 14... 6 months ago i bit a huge bullet and traded my 166 for a 745i SE... thus far my experience with BMW has not been wonderful... the 7 has a habit of lighting up the dash like a christmas tree whenever it feels like it... to cut a long story short the local dealer here in Scotland has agreed to take the car back... with a few incentives I've bitten an even bigger bullet and specced up a 525d M Sport (facelifted model)... due for delivery late March/Early April... it's ok i'm getting to the juicy stuff

I don't want to build your hopes up but every new car I have ordered has turned up before the scheduled date. I think they give a date as long as possible so they don't risk any chance of delivering it late and having to compensate that way. Therefore they hardly ever deliver a car later than they tell you so they don't have to put you in a car until yours turns up and then they phone you with good news to say your car has arrived earlier than you thought !

My 520d MSport has arrived 3 weeks early but sad man that I am I want an 07 plate on it so its stuck at the dealership until then. Like these other guys, I'm a bit miffed that the LCI is available only weeks after i pick mine up but releived that the M-Sport is unchanged aside from the lights.
