Hi all,
Firstly I am new member (currently drive a BMW 125d... boo I hear)
Bit bored tbh despite it's 218bhp and 450nm of torque. Without question its a great car with lots pace, grip, handling and frugality but I am missing that petrol engine sound and tuneful exhaust note that I m never going to get from my dirty 1.
Did look at the m135i and nearly bought one but I thought at 15k miles a year the fuel costs of a straight six would tarnish the fun factor for me. Was waiting for the S3 but then...
I saw a new 63 plate 3 door on Sunday and it both looked and sounded the shizz! It had the 19 optional alloys in white and I thought mmm nice nice get me one of those.
Currently arranging a test drive, which I am sure won't disappoint.
Spec wise I m at leather, performance pack, 19s, pro sat nav and manual in white.
I m very keen at ordering one but I am hearing there's incredibly long waits ahead, circa 5/6 months for a factory build (that's nuts) and that would put me off ;(
So I am hoping you guys can suggest some dealers with any available cars that you know of I.e cancelled orders like good ole bill the bear did with his and what kind of period you've waited and discount you've managed to get.
Thanks in advance all.
