Hi Guys,
Finally managed to get the car cleaned and some pics taken, camera phone I'm afraid. I've had it 12 days and done about 750 miles so far and very happy with it. The Individual Audio and USB option are worth every penny (cent). Very happy with the Natural Brown interior having taken a gamble on it having never seen it in real life, photos of it don't really do it justice and seems to be a different colour in all the photo's I've seen.
Anyway, here she is:-

Nice One, pretty good pics from your phone.........!
Natural Brown/ Black Trim looks the business, I nearly went for this one myself and was in two minds to change at last moment ............
(Went with Dark Blue + Alum Trim = big gamble AND IT WORKS !!!) Will stick some better pics on when i have a chance
Interior combination colours which give contrast are practical and look good but are pretty limited with only Natural Brown or Blue......and dealership stock / used cars awash with single tone beige, cream beige or Black, Black, Black and more Black. So pretty difficult to make an informed decision ...... pictures on BMW configurator NOT GOOD........
Individual Interior gets you a few more choices for really bonkers money but doesnt look as good in some ways,,, ie Leather on Central console/armrest goes the same colour as Upholstery......?
Good choice -- enjoy.........

Greetings from Sunny Socal, nice pix from your camera phone. Car looks fabulous. Is that a stock speaker?

Thanks for all the comments guys, must admit I wouldn't change a thing. Forgot to mention the HUD, don't know how I lived without it before. Not had much opportunity to use the Night Vision yet and am still finding the Stop/Go Cruise Control a bit scary and hovering over the brake pedal when flying towards stationary traffic.
If anyone is deliberating over the Individual Audio or the Natural Brown then both are definitely worth it and the 6FL/USB option is great.
