This seems to be the case at a lot of manufacturers at the moment. You can only buy from stock, which is limited, and they have few or no spec amendable cars in the pipeline for pre September delivery. The only one I’ve found that will let you order a new car and quote a delivery time in a single digit number of weeks is MINi. As the BMW is in for a service I’ve asked for a MINI Cooper petrol for the day via the adjacent MiNi dealer and we’ll see what that’s like :)
