2 months to wait. Excited much

Welcome to the club!

Looks like a nice spec you have there.

To wet your appetite I saw my 1st 125d M Sport parked up in a public car park yesterday. In Alpine white, but have to say it is stunning in real life.

I too have to wait until July/August for my 125i. Cant wait!

Congrats! You are getting yourself some hot wheels!
I don't know how they put the packages together in GB, but make sure you have the xenon lights! Preferable the adaptive ones. I'd gladly traded the Dakota leather for that (or some other goodies, because the standard M-sport Alcantara/hexagon interior is actually more comfortable and IMO looks even better)

Otherwise a very nice spec! If I had seen the Estoril blue in flesh before I ordered myself, I might have picked it instead of BS.

Cheers I can't wait. I haven't even seen one yet in real life only in photo's.

Thanks, in GB the visibility pack included the adaptive xenons so I sorted there.

It's hard to stop picking extras isn't it. I tried to haggle in pro nav but he was having none of it. Not sure when my build week is but he said it should be ready by mid July. It's gona be a slow 2 months.

I added the xenon headlights and rear parking camera after I ordered.....but it's HARD not to just order everything!!

I order mine on 30th April; build is week 23 and we should get it by 22 June (1st birthday of my little boy ).

Order 118i M Sport in Glacial Silver with quite a few bits and pieces (Pro Sat, Black Leather, Driver Comfort, Sun Protection, Dimming Mirror, Heated Seats, Aluminium Trim, High Gloss Finishers, Rain Sensors, DAB)

Very excited and only a month to go

It is exciting. It's my first new car. I teat drove the 118i engine impressed with power and economy for a petrol.

I always end up with a lot more extras than planned. But it adds to the total pleasure of a new car, making it more unique. So if you can skip that week end in New York, pick some cool options for the car instead

In addition to the M-sport package I definitely would pick:
- 8-speed auto (you don't need the paddles)
- Rear camera (includes PDC)
- Navi pro (so many cool features that you don't get with navi business, including extended instrument cluster)
- H/K
- DAB
- Heated seats (standard here in Scandinavia)
- All the small options around infotainment/bluetooth/phone
- Xenon, adaptive
- Folding rear seats 40/20/40

Just my point of view

It's option 6WA, proably same as you call Full Black Panel. It displays:
- graphics of momentary fuel consumption
- details from infotainment (radio, music, telephone, voice commands)
- graphics and details from navigation
- details from board computer
- traffic signs (speed limit and no overtaking) - only with option "speed limit info"
- Check Control messages

And it gives a lot cooler look

Disappointed they didn't make the whole cluster an LCD screen like in the 3 / 5 series. But it's better than the standard cluster!

The instrument clusters in the 5 series are amazing:

They seem decent at Wollaston but I will kick off if I don't get a complimentary BMW umbrella. That M135i should be epic how long you got?
