Finally Collected My 420i GC

First thanks to RiazC for all his help both initially and while he was on paternity leave. Collection yesterday went smoothly and I enjoyed a sedate 70 mile trip back. I now just have to get used to all the toys and configure the car to my taste.

I have just wiped the suicided bugs off the front and taken a few pictures:

Lovely. I'm waiting on my 328i from Riaz as well but it's not due until end June. Will bug him next week to see if VIN has been assigned so I can start tracking it (well, as much as it can be tracked from the UK).

No, Imperial Blue. Tanzanite Blue is lighter and more expensive.

Congratulations, looks great and exudes quality.

Nice to see a luxury (assuming it is) out and about, rather than the usual Tom dickhead n Harry Msports.

Those wheels will give you nightmares trying to clean them

Great colour blue as well, the 'lower' trims do have some really good colours available.

Did you spec the heated slipper and pipe holder?

Yes, a Luxury. It comes with heated seats and I just need to find somewhere for my pipes:
