Aussie orders

To all those Australians:

Has anyone ordered one yet? What was your specification and delivery date.

Thinking of putting an order in for a 7 seat X5 40i in the next few weeks.

You are ordering a very decent vehicle. Please post some photos when you get it. It definitely looks stunning.

I'm keen for the same car as you by the sounds of things.

I've heard a good price would be under 130k drive away including 15k in options

Would like to know prices others have got.

Hi. You're referring to a 7 seat 40i presumably? Yes I think with m sport pack and the 7 seats and a couple of other more minor options scraping in under $130k d.a. is achievable.

I don't believe we can get 130K for M50d driveaway but 30d and 40i is very achievable.

After test driving the G05 the vehicle didn't disappoint, so I placed orders for 2x G05's last week both specified for 2019 build
#1 M50d A96 Mineral White Estimated delivery mid April 2019
1PA 22" 742M bicolour Jet Black Wheels
VATQ Tartufo Merino Leather
4ML Piano Black Trim
Z1Q Indulgence Pack (comfort seats/heated/ventilated/massage+crystal feature controls)
3KA Acoustic Glazing
420 Sun Protection Glazing
407 Sky Lounge
418 Luggage Compartment Pack(Electric Cover/AntiSlip rails)
6NV Wirless Telephone charger
We also considered the B&W sound system but it just didn't seem to be reflect performance relative to the asking price

#2 30d A96 Mineral White Estimated delivery late March 2019
1TC 20" 740M bicolour orbital grey wheels
VASW Black Merino Leather
4ML Black Piano Trim
337 M Sport Pack
1MA M Sports Exhaust System (IMO the 30d sounds lethargic without it)
Z1Q Indulgence Pack (as for M50d+ adds to the 30d Soft Close Doors/heated cooled cup holder)
418 Luggage Compartment Pack
4NB 4Zone Climate Control (adds extra events in the B pillar with the sunroof it seems to lack cooling/ventilation in the rear)
698 Harmon Kardon 16spk Surround System
6NV Wireless phone charger

We ordered these to replace our old F15 & a Jaguar F PACE which never delivered the 'promise' ( as a 1st time & very disappointed Jaguar owner I won't be making that mistake again!)

Wow - a double down! Niiice. We're also considering the tartufo/piano combo.

Interesting you opted for the 742 not standard 747 in your M50d - I really like the latter but they can't be ordered on the non M.

Congratulations! Post pics of the white twins when they arrive.

thanks - I found out the 742's were a no cost option on the M50 so opted for the black finish for no other reason than to make it look different from grey on the 30d

Anyone who goes to the snow should be aware only the 19" wheels can fit snowchains. This is optional in NSW but mandatory in Victoria.

This is a real pain, as it means downgrading the wheel size and the MSport trim does not come with 19".

Anyone else encountered this issue on the new model? The dealer was unaware, and I've asked them to raise with Mulgrave HQ/Ryan to sort out how I can get Mpack and go to the snow!

From what I gather there's not an easy solution - the 30d M Sport pack I understand changes the brake disc dimension which won't allow clearance to use 19" wheels.....I asked the same question too of the dealer & BMW so we can legally travel in the Vic snowfields & am awaiting their solution.
