I calculated mine at 17.1% which I'm happy with. however, 19.5% would mean an extra £25 a month less which i don't mind taking if its there especially with my original car gone.

Wish me luck

BTW, Carbon Black is lovely, had it on my F10. Convinced it scratches from looking at it tbh! haha

I initially ordered a Phytonic Blue, Tech Pack, M Sport plus pack and Visibility pack + pano roof but dealer in Sytner Glasgow would not release despite me paying a despoit on it last week. Yans did you nick my car?

Ended up with same spec less Visibility pack but with adaptive Leds which im still happy with and Mineral white. Plus the new car is an August 2019 build so 2020 model year with black grill's etc.

Coming out of a white G30 and living in Essex, this is the perfect spec! haha

FYI if anyone is ordering now a 2020 model year car with M sport Plus will have M Seatbelts, Shadowline Grill and Exhaust Tips and Driver Recorder. Tech Pack with also have extra safety gear. If you dont have that, its a 2019 model year car.

Mate, what’s the extra safety gear in the tech pack???

Congratulations on your new car.

Will be great!
I need car detailing workshop recommendation, any one been use one?

[buze]

Ok for a meet!

earlier I had it parked amongst a few other posh cars, and I was sitting away as quite a few people (inc owners of said RR, LD, Audi Q5-7 etc) stopped to have a pretty close look.

Looks like my phytonic blue beast is build date 30-07-2019.

Does this make it MY19? Or MY20?

Should I decline the car if 19? Feel like I’m missing out!?

Not sure about declining? Hmm tough cal that, could be dealer issues unless you signed sup there and then for the rebuild.

I'd have faith, think this could be ok. There are G20 cars coming through with new features earlier like the car position in the Dash with Advances Driving Assistance Package

[JustChris]

UK question.

I'm going into the dealers tomorrow, I'm keen on the 45e. With this being a newer release, what's propels thoughts on potential discount?

I've already asked about the 2.9% APR and knew the answer before I asked, that is for stock cars in the current Sept promotion across dealers. 4.9% it would be for a factory order 45e.

Anyone ordered one of these yet and any advice on any particular gotchas? Did you order a wall-box at the same then?

Mine is 31-07-19, and it's definitely a 19...

Still a great car tho, I've had it 2 weeks, it's fantastic!

You're just missing a couple of bits but paying same price. I got lucking in being unlucky I guess although I'm not getting the laser lights.

That being said I managed to get another£38 a month off on Friday so not that bad

Well if you take that position, you NEVER buy anything. The 'next one' of /whatever/ is always going to be better, for the same money.
I hear the 2021 model is going to be even more fantastic-er than the 2020, are you SURE you want just a lame 2020? You're going to miss out! :-) :-)

Instead, I've will have had X weeks of enjoyment of the new car while the 2020 arrive in november or so. Including some fantastic weather to drive around in, like this week...

Hold on, the 2020 model year is out already, getting one tomorrow. Secondly I'm not saying don't get a 2019MY, the changes are so minor it's practically no difference and fairly sure that the missing driver recorder etc can be coded in

I had to do a couple of calls to the connected drive team as remote view was broken and Spotify would come and go from the media sources but all now sorted

How did you get the spotify app? I'm updated to .53 and had a look in the apps, can't find it...

Cheers

It was there when I drove away from the dealer after the update to .47 It then disappeared later in the day. If I went to the Media menu and scrolled down to "Personalise menu" Spotify was listed and checked. No amount of rebooting the idrive would make it appear so I called the connected drive team. First call they logged into the vehicle and said they had pushed the app...wait 24 hours, alas it did not appear. 2nd call to connected drive team and the tech put me on hold and went off to speak to a supervisor, returned and said there is a known issue with third party apps not showing, he said he had passed my vehicle details to team sorting this issue. About 4 hours later and the app appeared as per my earlier photos and touch wood a week later and no problems.

Give the connected drive team a call!
