There’s no end date for this ‘temporary’ removal and my Dealer tells me that there is nothing that they can do to help. I’m going in this weekend to discuss options, including cancellation.
I will likely either look at a different model, or even defer until the LCI comes on stream.
If you have an order with this production week or later, call your dealer.

Wow so you ordered in August and are being told a May build date? 9 months to be built and a bunch of options removed..while some people seem to think theirs will only take a few months.
I ordered a m440i last month, I'll give it a week or two to see if I'm contacted, then I'll start pestering both the dealer and bmw uk for updates. What I don't want to happen is to wait months only to have them change the date/order nearer the time assuming I won't back out as I've already waited so long.
Poo times!
