Yep, I'm in the UK @Carac, and my spec is in BMW's ordering system and has been submitted to BMW (with contract signed).
First customer deliveries in the UK are expected Dec-14 (c. September build); mine is Nov-14 build, with delivery expected Jan-15 (although I'm half expecting it to slip to Feb-15 TBH, in which case I will delay collection until Mar-15 due to the way UK year registrations work, i.e. it will be a '15 reg' as opposed to a '64 reg' (if it were to be registered anytime between Sep-14 and Feb-15 inc.).
However, it is worth noticing that BMW have said that now that initial orders have been placed across UK & Europe etc. they will now have a better idea how to allocate vehicles to different dealerships. Consequently they have said that further announcements regarding dealership allocations will be announced in the forthcoming weeks.
