Only 4 and Turbo models delivered so far and appear few and far between from my armchair analysis. 4S’ are seemingly not being delivered yet, reflected in those stuck in port, those with build dates being pushed back and slow updates to the configurator. If you’ve actually got wider concerns...

My understanding that Drive Assist looses the LKA element of Innodrive as you mention but only as a result of having more advanced autonomous driving abilities including lane change etc (in regions that allow it).

I imagine you’re frustrated. If you’re happy to wait and it’s only the MY revisions you’re concerned about I’d proceed. If this year is anything to go by, MY27 won’t be delivered Q4 2026 anyway. As we are seeing this year, I don’t think we will see the first MY26 4S’ land delivered until mid Q1...

Ordered 19th August for a 4S. Got access to TMD mid November when a build slot was issued. App showing no further updates due until WK1 when spec is locked and WK4 for build to commence. If you’ve not had anything, worse case you’ve no build slot allocated, best case they mislabelled your...

I’d say the opposite (though it’s fluctuates by model), but the HK systems in BMW have gotten worse over the last 15 years I’ve been buying them (8/9 in total) and the handful of cars from the Porsche stable with Bose seem to be better.

fortunate or otherwise that doesn’t explain why a manufacturer takes an opposing position to others. Tesla obviously feels that the sacrifice in battery is out stripped by the performance increase in charging speed and time. They realistically have more data than any other manufacturer but...

Indeed… was poorly worded on my part

My experience: Chester - Service - Very helpful and pleasant Sheffield - Purchase - Very helpful, though lack of allocations pushed lead times. Colchester - Speculative - Great and would purchase East London - Service - Hit & miss, sometimes really accommodating and other times poor comms. South...

I’ve got as Model Y at the moment and it generally caps speed at c70kwh if the battery isn’t preheated. Not sure why Porsche & others have a different perspective to Tesla…

I think the shape and design was mislabelled as size (even though that’s also factually correct). ‘Spyders’ are less aero dynamic than the ‘S’ wheels because of the way the air travels over the wheels creating less turbulence as airflow cannot enter the wheel and arch etc.

Did your BMW actively cancel any driving assistance if you weren’t paying attention? I had an M4 that I recently sold had assistance and some sort of IR device on the dash but I never experienced it cancel an assistance. By contrast the Model Y I’m in for the moment, will cancel if you spend 10...

Just spend the cash! Share your configuration code.

Interesting. No doubt order books opened again for MY26 (I’ve since received an allocation) and it’s not shifted.

I went for Spyder’s though I did consider the Sport wheels, also for ease of cleaning.

Off topic but how comfortable do you find the Axel Arigato’s?
