Probably mate, March-April was to good to be true.
So many guys in the US with delay's, one guy has a car completely built but it's been in storage for 9weeks, sounds like logistics/shipping problem

Did your status code reverse to 111 from 112 state?

I'm unsure to be honest my dealer happened to check for me on the morning, he then rechecked just before calling me on the late afternoon and he mentioned it had changed a whole month on the date in the space of him checking

OK, understood.. so the most probably is that you continue in 111 that means order accepted.
112 is scheduled for production, means that you have a production slot.
Is strange reversing from 112 to 112, because of that I asked to you about.

Good luck!

Just been told, build date is slated for March and expected delivery June. Everything has been pushed back due to current issues. It arrives when it arrives, just builds up the excitement even more!

Just asking... I don't know if this difference can be the reason of the delay in UK

That requires specific fabrication .. diff than the rest of Europe .. could be I reason, I think

Didn't read like you were just asking.

IMO it's looks like a transportation issue (shipping)

No worries, apologies for my English..

If was due transportation, the status should be 150 right now and could stay on finished pending of delivery.. but if stay at 111 then I think there is a production issue.

Apologies mate.

All our build slots are the same, roughly the end of Feb start of March, but the delivery is now June.

My dealer has also said the UK launch has been pushed back.

I'm just gonna reserve myself for June, if it's arrives before then it's a bonus

I ordered end of August mate not sure about status but I was 13th in the queue at the time of ordering.

I was an end of March delivery

Thought i'd jump on.

I ordered on release day, 07/07/2021. First in Northamptonshire.

I too got December build for Feb delivery. Then on the 07/12/2021, my order went from status 112 to 105, then on 14/12/2021, it went to 111. My current build date is 14/04/2022. I've got a Production Number and build slot tho.

Be aware, pack deletes have started happening. Mine was showing as WiFi hotspot delete and HK delete until they rang Germany and sorted it out. They're saying this car isn't hit by the chip shortage tho so anything being removed will be retrofitted or added back before build.

UK Launch was due to release November 2021. It's now March 2022. I've been told everyone with build dates for April / June will be moved forward to build dates in March. South Africa have started getting theirs and it's a very similiar spec (RHD etc) so shouldn't be long for us now.

It's likely, yes. Other people on this forum who ordered later than us are supposedly getting their cars in the next few weeks so i wouldn't be suprised if we were pulled forward, eg from June delivery to April delivery. Shipping from Mexico normally takes about 6 weeks tho. So niether of our cars will be here in March

Hello, Ordered from Australia 02Dec, went into production late January, shipped from Mexico 08Feb with arrival in Australia 08Mar. Right hand drive, portimao blue, all options added and produced. There was a delay with US/Canadian builds due to chip shortage and christmas break of 3 weeks. Right hand drive models started production in January. Hopefully europe and UK get their orders shortly.

Just had message from BMW today saying my M240i is at transport in Uk and should be at dealer ready for delivery at start of March, perfect just in time for the 22reg

Car was ordered at start of December and built on 17/01/22 shipped from Mexico to Germany then delivered to UK last week. Must be one of the first to arrive

Interesting to read, fingers crossed there will be more than just your car on that delivery. Not long to wait.

I'm assuming they'll still have to wait for the official UK release before they can give us the car? I'm scheduled for mid march at the dealer too so will be interesting to see how it plays out. Who did you order with and where are you located if you don't mind me asking?
