Less than a day old. When i hit that kerb, it felt like someone stabbed me in the chest 😂😂. Oh and i am over the taillights. The car is soo amazing that the tail lights doesn’t even matter and kinda like the look of the “original ” Tail lights
Wheel track is wider than it appears! 😭

Can't afford to get too close to apexes when zipping through roundabouts etc.

And it seems to make me park well away from the kerb! 😂
 
AHHA nice one.. One bucket, one cloth... I'd have gone running saying nnonononononon, dirty is fine, trust me, dirt on the car looks great, pls don't clean any white ones until I have my keycard!

Good intel on Bluewater. Always good to know what's in store.

Grats on the pick up, how did the rear lights go btw? Obv the most important thing is no damage, panel gaps and otherwise perfect car.
Sooo here are the pictures!

Car was cleaned but then I think it was left dirty afterwards

Scratches which is located on the rear passenger door frame.

Another scratch which is located on the back left passenger side.

New rear tail lights!!!! Lol 🤣

App is all connected finally after a long delay recieving network.

Swirl marks as well

There's a few unsure panel gaps I need to question but apart from that the cat drives great!

All issues have been booked in so will see how it goes from now till then.

The panel gap seems perfectly fine and inline. But i would get the rest of the stuff checked out
 
Collected today from Trafford Centre! Seamless experience. Arrived a little early via the tram, but the team were happy to let me collect ahead of schedule. All good, no damage or swirls, and boot panel gap seems fine! Supercharger very busy - had planned either here or Burtonwood on the way back to Liverpool but fortunately, 98% charge on collection!

A few hours in and love it! Such a difference coming from ICE.

Can someone please check if their charing Ampere is showing as 16 as well. I thought it shoul be 32A? Went to a tesla supercharger and the max speed i got was 55kwh which i think for a supercharger is low. And that was with preconditioned battery for optimum speed.
I think it defaults to 16A which is for 3 phase. Once you plug in, it will change.
 
Picked up the M3 LR Black paint/White interior today from NEC, bit of an issue with the reg being different so had to sort out insurance change. Drove home in snow (of all the days for it to snow!). Quick stop at Rugby services on the way pop the supercharge cherry (only had 103 miles charge at pickup). Purchased the acceleration boost whilst having a coffee at the services and the car was already updated by the time I got back to it. Couldn't really push it due to the weather but these cars are obscenely fast, it is ridiculous. One tiny mark on the door jam, really couldn't see too well with the weather so will have a good look for swirls tomorrow (its not super clean at the moment). No panel gaps. Absolutley loving the white interior and the sound system is awesome. Honestly, overall I felt strangely distant, I think I was overwhelmed and couldn't quite believe something as cool as this is mine, it needs processing. Tomorrow my wife will drive it to work, so I'll have to wait until later with my 2 buckets and wash kit. If you are having any doubts, forget them, I cannot even imagine how the feeling this car gives me can ever get old. Will take/post some pics tomorrow (provided its not still snowing!).

We’ll put! My sentiments exactly, even after a couple of weeks we still feel like that! The feeling of awe whilst driving, still pinching ourselves. White interior helps this, which you in that choice!

Brilliant! well done sir. Apart from the pointless swirl marks and the passable panel gaps, it's an easy win. Awesome pics. Grats :)
