You really need to ask your dealer. Normally they will point to the phrase in the brochure that says they reserve the right to change the spec at any time.

UK BMW's have rarely come with drivers side glove boxes in my experience. The twin tailpipes are probably only for the six-cylinder models, it probably says that somewhere in the brochure.

It is very difficult sometimes to know exactly how your car will looks from the brochures, simply because there are so many variations from country to country, and so many combinations of engine, trim level and options.

BTW, I've ordered an X4 2.0d SE in Sophisto Grey with Oyster leather and Pro Media, but don't get delivery until May 2015 as that is when my current lease expires.

I can only dream of just one polished exhaust

The drivers side glove box comes as part of the extended storage option ... If your car does not have extended storage you won't have it

All 20d X3/X4 models have single pipes .. The twin pipes are reserved for the six cylinder models

If you check the front inner pages of your brochure it will tell you the model and spec ( options) fitted to the photographed car. There may be a disclaimer saying the pictured car is not UK spec

predator / robwoods. you are right about info in brochure, and disclaimers. shame bmw cant issue brouchure for uk buyers. would save a lot of hassle. even my dealer agreed.

Have seen photo of a carbon cover on auto gear shift which i quite fancy, but dealer has said no accessories available yet for x4. i would have thought x3 carbon shift would have been same part.
