Getting closer

Spoke to the dealer who's supplying my next company car - Car should arrive at theirs today, so just got to wait for the lease company to 'approve' it and then I can have it...

So hopefully during next week if I keep fingers and toes crossed

Watch this space....

Spec of car:

G20 320d Sport, Manual in Sunset Orange and Oyster interior

(no options allowed in the company car scheme... )

Is it an option ?

Placed the order Christmas eve 2018 via the lease company, I think the BMW dealer then contact me first week in 2019 to confirm spec and placed order officially.

Went for a test drive in one today, mineral gray, drive was superb, felt like the 20d didn’t make enough power for the chassis to really have any fun, would be lethal with a bigger engine. The road noise was so low I questioned if it had RFTs, would want a longer test drive to confirm it over different roads, but a g20 with adaptive suspension is near perfect!

My 330i was delivered today.
I’m very pleased with it.
I’m having trouble uploading photos from my iPad, I get messages saying that the photos are too big.

Love the Sunset Orange, here is my G20 320d Sport with oyster leather interior. Sadly company car scheme does not allow for extra bells and whistles....

I’ve done about 350 miles.
I’m more than delighted with mine, the quality is top notch and is
much quieter than my old 3.

Only done 200 miles so far, cannot believe how quiet the car is.

only a couple of niggles....

doors need forceful closure
still trying to get driver's seat adjusted to my liking (short legged driver!)

Oh and spotted a scratch that's been repaired (not brilliantly) !
