Mike,

what's the spec, colour etc? (if you don't mind my being a little nosey) a 135i sounds good but I had a moan about the $ vs £ vs E price (i.e. US pay what we do in $!).

I was actually told that mine went into production 2 weeks ago...but the story's changed a bit each time I ask! But given a VIN 2 weeks ago.

Well I asked my dealer to put it in his diary to call me in a week to inform me what happening. Shame I have to ask them to keep me informed with the amount of money I am spending but hey.

I have gone for a AW with all the shopping. The only things I haven't put on it are the front pdc and memory seats. AW is seen of a bit of a fashion statement at the moment but tbh I have always loved White BMWs and having owned lots of them now I have never found a white one. The colour choice was instant

Sounds really good. A friend of mine came over from Holland (stopping over in Munich I think) and turned up in a white m sport convertible with Munich plates... looked excellent...so your 1 series will look wonderful. I liked the white but thought it a little too "over the top" for me. Hence the Le Mans Blue. I agree...dealers aren't wonderful at keeping us in the loop here...and the fact that I heard the same story over 3 weeks is anoying. Esp as they told me it was being built "as we speak" when the Regensburg (I think?) factory website says they are off for a few weeks!
