This was one of the key questions I chased my dealer on- without an allocation and production slot then there is no real timescale in which to indicate when you will get the car. This accounts for some of the issues experienced on i4 and particularly the i4M50. BMW underestimated the demand for the M50 and clearly are having problems building them in sufficient quantity to satisfy demand. Consequently, they are scaling back dealer allocations and continually rescheduling to production. Have you seen real screen shots from BMW AG production contr system which verify what you are being told by your dealer?

Now bumped to October/November, I give up. This car was ordered in September 2021!

I ordered 11 Nov 21 and was the 3rd i4 order at my dealership of an allocation of 8. Due August 22…
I have seen 1 & 2 on the roads…

I had status 112 for the week commencing 11th July. But, didn't happen and on the unlucky 13th I checked and I got the dreaded status 105… Now 111 for week commencing 10th October 22…
I'm about to service, MOT, and re-tax warrantee my car for a year. Annoying spending about £1000 on a car I shouldn't have any more. But, at least if my M50 actually arrives I can claim back the unused tax and warrantee.
