I see an estoril blue M-Sport every day on my way to work, and i pass him again on the way home. Hello if you're reading this, mine's the 12 plate Crimson Red sport you keep seeing....

I also seee a white sport, a black sport, another red sport, and a midnight blue SE on a pretty regular basis driving around here.

I've had my 116i Sport for about 3 weeks. Mine is in glacier silver. My previous bm's have also been silver. Much easier to keep clean. Sheer laziness. I like it.

Considering the F20 was launched Sept 11 in the UK I have seen only a handful around the Newport area in South Wales, most of which have been Sport models. Haven't seen another M Sport yet, except in the dealer's showroom - in Valencia Orange which I must admit looked much better in the metal than on paper but still I think an acquired taste!
Hope you enjoy your car hillbillybear and no doubt you cannot wait for it to arrive.

Bit of both, really. Touring this time will take us to (hopefully) Devon, Dorset, Somerset & Cornwall). First F20 with the wheel on the left around the area, perhaps...?
Family lives near Uxbridge.
