Talking F20 116i Business Sportline - Delivered June 30th 2012

Hi all,

I'm Marco from The Netherlands (Europe), 35 yrs, married, QHSE manager. Found this website/forum through Google

I was allowed another lease car from the company and guess what...

It's going to be a BMW...116i Business Sportline.

Have to wait some time, as I can pick it up from the dealership end of June because of my current lease contract...

It looks like below pictures which I took from the Rotterdam dealership.
In fact, the only difference is it being a 118i model...





Like the Sportline unique wheels



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update July 1st 2012

Took delivery yesterday and it's a brilliant drive...I just love it!

I agree. It is a great looking car. I've seen several on our roads and I think it's a huge improvement over the last version. Don't let the naysayers get to you - your car's gonna be awesome.

Snap! I pick up the exact same model on 1st March except mine has black wing mirrors too. The wait is the worst bit ��. I've become a danger trying to spot one while driving around!!

Congrats! Great car and great colour
The bold design will stay cool forever. The pure white reallly shows the shape.

It looks beautiful!
Great color choice for the Sport version.
I'm amazed at how similar all BMW dealers look everywhere, by the way.
Also, it's funny they show a colour scale by the car displaying energy costs, as if it was an ordinary fridge or washing machine...!

Yup...based my choice on that exact same model...
Expended the black & white theme with the black headliner and black dashboard trim with brushed alu parts ;-)

Excellent colour choice.... These wheels are the best looking for the F20 and in combination with tinted windows and blackline lights it will be a real looker!!

Did cancel the order for those Blackline taillights as they had an unknown lead time.
