Likely the most popular model in Europe - I know dealers here in Ireland began receiving 520D F10's last week..... anybody on the forum got theirs yet?
Interested in any observations.... my 520D SE Auto is still a few weeks away :-(

Seems that the unexpected order load has put the factory into overdrive!
Orders seem to be about 20 days ahead of schedule at the moment, so worth checking back with your dealer regularly.

My car is in Finland in the week 28 or at least early w 29 but my dealer is on vacation.
Of what I know my car was behind the schedule a week+ when it came out of the factory.

There must be always some substitute person available who can do the actual delivery, I don't believe that the whole place in on vacation...or else it's then really weird place...
