CP definitely will have been as that's pretty high volume. Here in the UK/Europe I assume too, any car on sale must be officially rated on new WLTP standards from 1/9/2018. This is having some impact, for example a work colleague has a Golf R on order for 3 months, he still has no delivery date as I think VW (the industry bad guys booooo ) are struggling to either meet or obtain correct ratings for WLTP.

I'd assume for most manufacturers its a case of setting priority of your volume and ££ business. Thus VAG might have got all their main stream models ahead in the queue.

Tiny side note, I've had an F82 previously and actually achieved 29/30 MPG (UK based Gallons) thus if that's the official rating now....very impressive figures from BMW, well done. These WLTP figures for me (long Motorway commute at times) will be very accurate and achievable. #mindblown
