No more "Pure Impulse" option in UK

Looks like the Pure Impulse option is no longer available on the UK configurator. The page with Pure Impulse info is still live on the UK site here but when you click Find Out More button which used to take you to the build system with PI selected it now says this is no longer available.

I've also tried building from scratch and the PI option is no longer on the Packages page but I think a few PI options are now available as extras? Don't recall being able to select leather engine cover before, or the black with with blue calipers?

So I guess that means carpo grey PI interior with blue stitching and embossed headrests, black ceramic gear lever and laser etched i* door cills are gone too (for now).

I've ordered PI and my Ionic Silver:Turbine:PI arrives at my UK dealer 22nd March so hopefully that's still going to have all the PI extras.

I've also noticed that the base price has now gone up about £5k?

Hi,

Yes this is correct, I have been advised that the BMW i Pure Impulse Card is now part of the standard price and the other constituent parts of the package are now options. However, I believe you are correct that you cannot replicate the package in full - for example with the door sills or embossed i on the headrest.

BMW may have just thrown us a bone after that "we're doubling production" talk.
