United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Bali Blue

I'm getting weekly updates from BMW with regard to progress of my X3 Very Happy

Latest update is its going in to build week 5 w/c 27th January Big Cry

In America (where German owned BMW build the X1,X3,X5 and X6!!!) they can log on to a live website for updates on their build as well as receiving a DVD of their actual car being built when they collect it. Thumbs Up I read somewhere that LR now do a special delivery event for buyers of their top of the range FFRR (Gaydon possibly?) in a state of the art building and get a full session of how everything works on the vehicle (before waving them goodbye and throwing the shutters down before it breaks down) Whistle Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black
Gone - 2014 BMW X3 M Sport Space Grey, faultless!
Gone - 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Bali Blue with xenons
Gone - 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Rimini Red with bodykit

England 2014 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Lux Auto Santorini Black

See - that's pretty cool and really makes you feel valued as a customer.

I'm convinced larger companies under-estimate the value of value. Making a fuss of someone helps/completes the experience. Ok we're spending a lot of money on one of their products - but the buying experience should be a lot more than just about the product - it's not like we buy one every day

Here's to hoping they make a fuss of me/mine when it's ready Bow down MY14 SD4 HSE LUX, Colour - Santorini Black, Spare Alloy, Privacy Glass, Front & rear SS tread plates, Chrome arse, Official LR coat hanger!! <-- Going soon... Any offers?

On order - DS2 with pretty much everything on 👌

On of my boys ordered a Scirocco about three years ago, made in Portugal I believe, he could track that from the Oder date, to going down the line, coming off the line, awaiting shipment, could even track the ship it was coming from Portugal on. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Scotland 2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e Dynamic Manual Fuji White

Dealer rang me last night to confirm when the build will start Very Happy its only takes 7 days for the whole process and thats including delivery to the dealership Shocked . MY14 Evoque has had problems on the production line with the panoramic roof so they have stopped production until it is rectified. In the mean time focus has gone onto building the MY14 Freely. So depending on how many orders have been put down prior to your one you may get the car sooner than you think Thumbs Up MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

Strangely BMW build the X models in just one factory based in America hence the long lead in times
