ETA status update from my (UK based) i Dealer:
  • Aug-14 1 x order
  • Dec-14 1 x order
  • Feb-15 2 x orders (one of which is mine - my order ETA slipped from 15-Jan-15 to mid Feb-15)
He confirmed that although they were briefed to set customer's expectations for first UK deliveries to be end of the year (Dec-14 was quoted), they seem to have pulled forward some orders.

Regarding laser lights, the BMW UK website has been updated, and now shows the following, "A second broad frame is added as a distinguishing design feature when the optional high-beam headlights with laser light technology* are selected.... *Planned availability from the end of 2014."
Ref. http://www.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/new-vehic...13/design.html
(Previously it said available from November.)

On a slightly different note, the dealer is organising the test drive event and I'm booked in to test drive the i8 on 19th July
