Yes and my dealer has told me he checks each of his car orders every day and mine was 1200 yesterday. He also told me that the status changes around 10am if there is an update.
Just one month today (plus 5 hours) before I take it for a spin!

+ Has your dealer mentioned the Brands Hatch driving day on the 19th of June (see thread link below), if not and you are interested get them to secure you a place ASAP! (Dealers have to book and pay for both you and your salesman to attend - BMW UK provide the M3/M4's). http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=978879 Next month is going to be truly fantastic, I am so excited I cannot wait!

My M4 is 2 weeks behind you (BW 25) and still stuck on 1200 (I've just checked and no movement). FYI, I've discovered a BMW UK order info line - 0906 209 0001

My dealer emails me a screen shot once a week, or more frequently if the car changes status, so I probably wont phone that premium rate number. I'm just excited, as I guess you are. I have noticed on the "Pref Cust hand Dt" there is "21/06/2014 HOL" I wonder what the HOL means

In summary, were it not for the official M3/M4 launch and first delivery date being the 21/06/2014, your "Pref Cust hand Dt" would probably have been 16/06/2014. Next month is going to be truly fantastic, I am so excited I cannot wait! .

Dealer is still trying to get a pdf manual; I'd really like to read it before I get the car; if my car does arrive early, I'll take the manual home with me before I can pick up the car. One of the best things about my car is that it is red, I hated the colour of my bluewater 330d. Anyway, I'll get photos as soon as I can. I've also noticed, I'm one of the few that seem to have order the TV.

I do wonder if BMW are using an SSD this time; otherwise i'll keep my music on a micro USB stick rather than the internal hard drive

Hi all been following the forums since December, placed my M4 order mid feb and the wait is driving me insane!! Originally had a BW23 but for some reason this has been moved to BW26.
Did your BW move in either direction since order? Hoping that I will get moved forward but seeming less likely as each week passes. Not ordered the CCB's so no idea why the three week delay. |

Anything unusual on your spec or did you change it all?

I made some small changes very early, not sure it would cause a delay. From memory unchecked sliding armrest and sun protection glass and checked speed limit display. I guess if your order is anything to go by I will stay BW26. |
