Nah, not for me. I want something smaller and certainly not electric. Either 3 Series Touring or X3.

BTW, Mrs P cancelled her car as no one bothered to tell her it didn't have leather interior.
I think you will find that only the very top end have genuine leather interiors,,rest are faux leather from recycled materials like much if the rest of the industry…….not as bad as it sounds!

By the way, mine has nappa leather.…….. it is lovely.

It's not even faux leather, it's clothy type stuff. I had faux leather in my Merc 11 years ago and it was ok but I wouldn't willingly have fabric upholstery in a car again.

Unfortunately, the sales burd that my contact has lumped on us is not up to the job; she appears incapable of reading, spelling and listening. Progress has stalled and my potential purchase has ground to a halt, too.

I have nappa in mine, too. It is indeed lovely but it can show signs of wear much sooner than the normal leather from cows that have died of old age.

Have you done an online build? Do that and then send the link to the dealer to negotiate price on.

CarWow is,worth a look as well….you don’t need a local dealer, they are all fighting for your business.

Certain models don't seem to being built anymore. I can't get a new M340 Touring anywhere and the bastards seems to be phasing out diesels! Even the new 5 Series is petrol, PHEV or full electric.

Carlow couldn't beat my dealer in Kent last time out, not even close. He also gives us a shed load of equity in our current cars. I guess I could try just for shiggles........

Sarah’s ex boyfriend’s dad bought one, there was a two year wait, 18 Month’s into the wait he sold it & made £40,000 profit.
They haven't started production yet and they only announced it today.
