Bought a few cars from Wollaston over the years and they have always been good.
Although just had a call and been told delivery is December...they have put in a pull forward request as I have been quoted September.

I bought a second hand 5 series from Wollaston but this is my first New car I'm so excited.
I hope they sort that delivery for you but I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

Estoril Blue?

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

I have ordered my 120d m sport with the sport auto, + the paddles, so you don't think it is worth it?

Cheers picking it up Tomorrow. Can't wait.

Matty_T · 07-23-2012, 07:48 AM

Awesome. Get some pics up as i'm keen to see as many Estoril Blue beauties as possible. I am also very jealous I've got nearly 2 months left to wait!

Bogus · 07-24-2012, 02:52 AM

Ditto Matty's comments, this wait is killing me!

As far as I know the only differences between the auto and sport auto are:
- paddles
- a different stick / leather bag
- sport auto displays the actual gear engaged when driving in sport mode

Anything you can do with the +/- paddles you can do with the +/- gate on the stick. Similar to manual gear change.
Please correct me somebody if wrong

The sport auto also has faster gear shifts I believe, just using different software.

This Car is Awesome. I'm so impressed with every aspect. HK stereo superb, Estoril Blue looks stuning. Full electric seat with memory, so convienient. Bluetooth for phone works perfectly. USB is fantastic simply drag music straight from itunes to memory stick and it sounds spot on and easy to navigate . driving is an absolute pleasure so quiet for a deisel. sterring seems great. havent tried sports mode yet as dealer recomended not using it for the 1st 1000. but the POWER of this car bearing in mind i haven't put my foot down yet is astonashing.

Matty_T · 07-25-2012, 04:54 AM

Awesome. Glad you're happy with it Brucedog.

Looks lovely in the sunshine. Looking forward to seeing some more pics.
