Hybrid Pro all the way. So a question for you. My car (even in Hybrid Pro) when approaching junctions and roundabouts often slows itself down with some low regen braking (I don't have my foot on the brake nor on the accelerator). But not always, sometimes it just coasts. I've yet to work out how this really works. Have you also had this? I enabled an option on iDrive to show regen options. Sometimes a little icon pops onto the display indicating that I should coast about 1-200m from the "obstacle"... if I do it gives me a little "tick".

Mine are on 3.1 BAR. There are options on iDrive to set ECO/comfort/lots of weight. My pressures are between comfort and ECO...

i just wait for the call

Just be mindful that this was over a long journey with some regeneration. It won't do 47 miles in pure electric if you just "set off"... I'd say between 30 and 35.

It never happened to me, in Hybrid Pro it always coasts off accelerator, but I never used the GPS, maybe that's the reason?

Yup. Ordered through Arval. They seem to be inundated with orders for this at the moment. A little gutted but hey at least it should be a nice Christmas present and will give me time to get the OLEV grant sorted and the box on the wall!

Every cloud and all that...

Sounds like it, I’m using my GPS all the time to get the predictive regen/economy benefit

I managed to get my order number when organising a little test drive (why not!) in a couple of weeks:

Congratulation Nick! Your new car will be progressing into production imminently. A chassis number has been allocated and your car is starting to take shape with all your chosen features and finishes.
Your order status is-5055.

Delivery expected 21st October.

Think work are delaying handover until the 4th November though

Had a weird one this morning. My order went in via ALD back mid-August. So far regular checks on progress have been pretty consistent with delivery scheduled w/c 14/10.

BMW Genius live chat this morning told me I needed to contact my dealer as the status had changed - but he wouldn't say why or what to....? So I sent an email to the dealer. But while I was waiting for a reply went back on to Genius with a different operator who said car going into production next week, due for delivery 14/10! Dealer emailed back confirming the same....

Think I've finally p!ssed the genius people off by contacting them every other day 😂😂😂😂

It does regen sometimes in Eco Pro, I think based on GPS data. So that journey was pure Eco Pro apart from one moment in Xtraboost overtaking a slow digger :-)

Sometimes I used to hassle them several times a day, I think you’re probably ok! ;-) I reckon I could name all the agents and even struck up a bit of a rapport with some of them. I’m sure they were thinking, oh no, not him again... :-)

Ah, I remember that day... ;-) < 2 weeks and you should have it! :-) I feel my current "330e exclusivity" diminishing by the day... ;-) It is a brilliant car, do post with your thoughts when you get it.

[Tam the Bam]

Around 2 weeks by my experience....... give or take.....

[alslive]

I will, I went down the dealer and had a good look around a 320d M Sport... it had all the toys..!!!

Mine won't sadly 😕, but they just look so good... the best looking car out of its competitors.

I understand what your saying about exclusivity, as it seems a lot of people on here are awaiting delivery, but I've only seen the older model in the road yet, which surprises me as we are in October.

Snap!! Maybe they're on the same boat? 😬

[alslive]

😂.. possibly.

Mines will end up at the dealer in Liverpool, so not sure wether it'll go to a north or south port.

Expected handover week WC 21.10....🤞🏻

There are VERY few G20's on the road. I
don't think they've sold that many...

If it's Liverpool it's Cuxhaven to Immingham

I've had mine a week now but saw another new 330e at the office yesterday, and in the same colour as mine. Damn!? ;-)
