Landed the other day at the dealer, only a couple of weeks to wait now.

Suspension blocks need removing too!

Looks great! Have you chosen to pick it up in a couple of weeks or is that how long you have to wait after the dealer gets them?

Mine is due delivery to the dealer W/c 13th September and my birthday is on the 17th so was hoping to pick it up then

I’m mainly holding on for the new plate but it fits in around work too.

I’m not too precious about it, but come resale there’s normally a few hundred quids difference so…

Yeah I'd definitely wait for the new plate too in your position. Obviously mine will be delivered when it's already available so hopefully I can pick it up on my birthday then 🤞🏼

Nice.
As you say, the laser lights with magic lights are awesome. I love the way they box out the car in front down a country Lane, sending Bright white full beam light down past both sides of the car. The improved viability they bring is top notch.

A slightly belated congratulations and welcome to the club - I'm sure you'll find your new car to be a very accomplished all-rounder! Given the reference to Whitby are you also North Yorkshire based?

Well geographically it's a pretty big place so probably not much chance of seeing one another on the roads; however, having said that I did see a Mineral Grey G21 M340i unloading stuff into skips at our local amenity site a few weeks back!

Absolutely great car! Appreciate you may want to PM me, but that discount seems good, I was only getting circa 10% off list, would you mind letting me know which dealer you ordered it through. Many thanks

Judging by the number of members on here with a M340i yoou oculd be forgiven that you'll see one around every corner.

Thanks

I’m near Tadcaster, although spend a lot of time in the Yorkshire Dales with the mountain bike which was one of the reasons for getting this.

I really enjoy the Whitby to Pickering road (late at night!)

Haha, small world, I'm pretty much in the middle of Tadcaster and Scholes. I'll be sick of seeing m340i touring at this rate 😂

Not too far from me, I'm between Ripon and Boroughbridge!

We probably don't head to the Dales as often as we should given it's right on our doorstep. However, we're fairly regular visitors to the North Yorkshire coast with the dogs and I'm pretty familiar with that road past Fylingdales!
