After an agonising 2.5 month wait, I collected my new car today.
First impressions are...
- this car is truely awesome - stunning to look at and a real feel-good experience to drive.
- the ride is sublime - moving up from a 3 series sport, the ride is definitely less firm, more compliant, but still sporting in character, a great setup.
- L7 is very good - not incredible - but definitely very good. I've still got to tweak the settings, but the Theatre mode is very impressive.

Thanks all.
It's the Vines dealership showroow, just outside Guildford on an industrial estate. I didn't go far to get a good deal, but I couldn't get one local (Wood).
Trust me - the wait for your new car will be worth it!!!

I'm in Fleet.
Ordered mine through Drive the Deal, so it'll not be at all local !

I really understand your feelings about the car (also because I drive same model as yours). You couldn't get a better car. Congrats for the new ride.
