Portimao with mocha here in Leith, although my 330e is off the road waiting for a new tyre, to replace the unrepairable one with the nail in it

Love the grey! Mine arrives Friday morning, can't wait. Grey with mocha

Mine has the Plus Package with Cognac interior.

They look great.

[Warrior54]

Mine is only scheduled for production. Still not sure if I have made the right call with Portimao blue with Cognac interior, because I am loving the Grey also. Congrats to everyone who has already got theirs!!!

[alslive]

Cognac looks awesome in my opinion

out some pics up!! Not seen one in the flesh or outside the brochures and promos - probably loads on here if I search properly though!

[alslive]

Interior pics were hard... as I wasn't prepared to get wet taking them from outside, and I'm not exactly a waif.

I'll take some better ones when it's not raining.

good man - looks ace! many thanks

Long time lurker on this forum - good afternoon all.

In process of sorting out new company car for March/April 2020 - can you confirm what electric only mileage you are getting for your BIK rates?

Sytner are quoting 41 miles, others under 40.

BIK rate is 6% if electric range is 40-69 miles
BIK rate is 10% if electric range is 30-39 miles

So quite a difference.

Also unsure if Msport plus package (19s) will lessen leccy mileage? Or if the BIK rate still goes on the standard BMW provided mileage.

Hopefully some answers to this will help a few people out.

So before ordering I was told by my lease company and their supplier Inchcape that only the 330e SE counts for the 41 mile/8% BIK. The M Sport and M Sport Plus are 34/35 miles so 12%. It wasn't at all clear from the BMW website.

Interesting if BIK has dropped. Mine arrived 20th Sept and I'm expecting the BIK to drop from 16 to 12% from April '20.

Cool thanks - i thought that may be the case.

i commented on this on another thread - the info available on line is awful and contradicts! My lease company has said 8% on my m sport so will see! Seems like range has improved of late I think some improvements to battery but all a bit vague!!

When does yours arrive mate?

I might ring HMRC up and speak to them about it, as quite often you can advise them what figures to put into their system etc. Just go with the lower amount (higher leccy mileage) to get the lower BIK?

Mine's due March 2020 but might be delaying a month to get the even lower BIK rates from 6th April 2020.

Delivered in the morning!

[eddiehaug]

I've ordered mine today (company car). The car has gotten confirmed production for week 46 and delivery 3-4 weeks later, here to Norway.

It'll be M-Sport, fully spec'ed, including all the packages, M-Adaptive suspension, HK sound, etc.

I'm counting the days now! It should look something like this:

So close yet so far.....

My 330e was supposed to be delivered to me on Wednesday PM this week (it's a company lease vehicle so is actually coming from BMW Williams in Manchester down to me on the south coast).

Wednesday PM arrived and there I am sat patiently waiting, checking outside every 5 seconds.... nothing. Then a phone call - not a mobile number from the delivery driver but a Manchester number....

Turns out the car transporter my 330e is on has broken down 🤬😢 and there's no way they can get it to me today.

So am now expecting delivery tomorrow (Saturday).

The first world emotional rollercoaster experience 😂😂😂😂

[Chris Peacock]

Finally placed my order to replace my 2016 320d M-Sport, this will be my 3rd 3 series and having looked at the competition nothing in budget could tempt me. Topped off by the tax benefits as a company car driver I just couldn't see past the 330e model.

Anyhow the but you'll be more interested in I'm sure is the spec;


330e M-Sport Plus Edition
Tanzanite Blue
Black Merino Leather
Visibility Package
Premium Package
Technology Package

Didn't add the Comfort package as I'm not keen on the keyless entry, maybe worrying over nothing.

Just awaiting order confirmation back from ALD and an idea on timings but not expecting it anytime before Feb earliest next year.

Now the wait begins......
