Hello Everyone

After many many years running around in my trusty and rusty C180, I have ordered my very first BMW.
My budget has allowed me to go for a:

F30 320i Sport Saloon
Alpine White
Sport automatic transmission
Sun protection glass
Split-folding seats
Folding mirrors


A very very modest spec considering what some of you members own on here but I simply could not stretch any further.
Some of the specs I have read on here are just amazing.
Still I am sure she will put a smile on my face.

Due here mid October and the question I have is should I allow the dealer to give the car "Metal Mate" and "Seal & Protect" applications?

Thanks and have a nice bank holiday

Congrats! Yes it may be light on options, but you have the two most important imo, the sport auto & sport seats!

Thanks for the welcome and nice words. Any thoughts on the metal mate and seal and protect applications?

General consensus is not the let the dealer touch it. Find a good local detailer and spend £400 odd to get it protected properly (i.e. 7-8 hours work).
