Is that Dravit Grey and Shadowline?

[danorman777]

Looks awesome Richard. Great choice. Mine was that combo originally, but I changed to Black outside and black individual inside.

Mine has supposedly arrived at the dealers at last!!

Lovely looking car, mine arrives on Monday just in time for the weather to change!

Dravit Grey in standard Plus Edition spec which I think includes High-gloss Shadowline. It was a stock car so there was no opportunity to change the spec or add options.

My G21 finally arrived yesterday, very pleased with it! Apologies it was a bit overcast by the time I was able to take some photos, will post some better ones once the car's been detailed (although unfortunately that won't be until next month).

Very nice. Seats go very well with the Tanzanite!!!

I spoke with my dealer today. I was originally set for delivery mid May but now looking at July. A 2 month delay it seems on factory builds.

lovely, what colour is the leather?

Thanks, the leather is Tartufo and in conjunction with the Tanzanite paint the colour combination is in effect midnight blue with a tan interior.

I did agonise between Tartufo and Ivory White - I think the latter has more visual impact initially but in the end I felt the Tartufo would give the interior a warmer, richer, ambience. Having got the car I'm happy I made the right choice for me but in saying that I still think the Ivory White also looks great against Tanzanite Blue!

[V330d]

I've a 2014 Tanzanite 335d f31, and wasn't brave enough move from black leather,
I've an awful itch for a M340d Tanzanite and a leather other than black! Teastons X3 looks great, but its so difficult to judge from pictures.

It is difficult to judge from pictures and the BMW online configurator doesn't always give a realistic impression either! Unfortunately Tartufo doesn't seem to be a common choice and prior to ordering I couldn't find a physical car with that interior local to me. I therefore had to rely on the swatch in the dealers for the colour and pictures/videos on the internet to judge how it would look in a car; I suppose it all had the potential for being a horrible mistake come delivery time but thankfully it wasn't!

That said it all depends on what sort of feel and ambience you want to create; I think Tartufo looks warm and rich but if you want something more elegant Ivory White's probably a better bet. Nothing wrong with black either but personally I just prefer a cabin that's a bit lighter - definitely one of those "each to their own" things!

Just receieved an update that my 330 is expected at the dealer 20th July. It was originally expected at the dealer 22nd June so this is not as bad a delay as I was anticipating. Only a month delay is really not bad all things considered.

That doesn't make sense, why such a huge delay compared to mine when it looks like you ordered before me?

No idea. Chased BMW Park Lane, and no explanation from them either.
Very annoying as my Mercedes has to go back at the beginning of July and they refuse to extend my PCP agreement unless I buy another car from them.

Please tell me you said "back of the net" when it arrived?

I have the 330d x drive saloon and the engine is pretty beefy and smooth, part of me wishes I'd gone for the estate just so it would be easier to get my bike in and out.
