I had an email from the dealer saying mine had reached the port(Bremerhaven?) so should be with them by the end of this week.

7.5 Weeks Order to 'potential' delivery, 9.5 actual

Ordered 23rd Dec (Lease Co to BMW), confirmed details by me 24th Dec
In Painsthop 2nd Feb (5.5 weeks)
Arrived UK Port 10th Feb (<7 Weeks)
Currently in 'Dealer Storage' as of 15th Feb waiting to be delivered to me
Delivery to me 2nd or 3rd March ('21 plates and old Lease Car expiry) (9.5 weeks)

If I did not have to wait for old lease to lapse, I would have had the car tomorrow 16th Feb = 7.5 weeks

Kinda makes up for having no Christmas presents at all this year!

Yes
Are you sure? Don't know about the touring specifically, but my saloon was built in Mexico.

I was certain, until you said that. I can’t see logic in shipping from South America to Europe when the main plant is Munich. The whole point of the Mexican Plant is for America with China used for APAC and Australia.
Does is actually say made in Mexico on the VIN plate? Mine was certainly built in Munich and only took a few days from factory to TDC. If it had to come from Mexico it would take a fortnight at least.

Mine is WBA = Munich. Not sure what the Leipzig plant is but they don’t make the G20 there.

Order placed for a G21 330e, M Sport, Alpine White and Mocha. This is a company car through a lease company.

BMW (Milton Keynes) confirmed the order has been placed today and gave me the order number, I assume I can use this with Genius?, I asked about lead - have suggested August delivery...hoping that's a conservative estimate!

May not be completely up to date... but 11th Character of VIN denotes plant

A, F, K – Munich, Germany
C, B, D, G – Dingolfing, Germany
E, J, P – Regensburg, Germany
L, M – Spartanburg, U.S.A
N – Roslyn, South Africa
W – Graz, Austria
V – Leipzig, Germany

Thanks - I’d read that G20/21s in individual paint were built in Germany but wasn’t sure if it was Dingolfing or Munich ...looks Like Dingolfing is 5Series?

I've asked my dealer to keep the car until 1st March. Can't decide whether to ask them to deliver or not (I think that's free during lockdown). It's probably easier, and I can't imagine that the handover experience at the showroom will be great at the moment.

I wasn’t offered delivery but then I didn’t ask either. Handover is overrated IMO anyway, somebody laboriously taking you through the bleedin’ obvious.
I can walk to the dealer anyway so a pick up is no issue.
