1st Post - Newbie

I have just bought a new 320d SE E90? Delivery in early December.

Cant wait!

Ordered a few extras on the car.

As for the inside trim I went for the light grey, which I now can not change!

The seats and dash look great, but the pale grey carpet is not too practical.

I am having second thoughts about the colour as I have a small child with potentialy meddy boots!

I will have to source some good mats! O have seen some on ebay for about £25 + postage. The OEM ones are extortionate!

i have the OEM mats in my E46 330. I love em...a little pricey but its worth the extra money. They are easy to clean and dont stain very easily.

Will have to get some. Think they are about £75 in the UK.

I do like the grey interior, even though it is not to all tastes!

I have opted for the brushed aluminium and the sports 3 spoke wheel also.

I am promised the new engine with 177 bhp and increased fuel consumption!

yea i paid $75 for the front set a year ago..so thats not all that bad. I have the grey interior also, it cleans up nicely with some basic soap and water scrubbing.

Man this is going to be a nice car. I love the 3 spoke wheels, and aluminum trim(might be changing out my wood trim). Envious

so when is it delivered?

Getting it 1st week in December.

Options I ordered are USB audio interface, rain and light sensor, 3 spoke sport wheel, folding rear head rests, sun blinds, M Sports suspension, Brushed Aluminium Trim, in Monaco Blue with light grey cloth!

Options chosen were quite reasonable, didnt want to spend much on top.

The SE is quite well speced anyway.

I had second thoughts about the light grey interior because of cleaning, I have an 18 month old son.

No chocolate for him in the car!

Thought it would be a good contrast against the dark blue.

Great choice with the 320d, BMWCar magazine did reviews on the 320d coupe this month and last month, sounds like it's a great drive.

Think they said there was a claimed consumption of 55mpg combined compared to the E46 one which had 46mpg combined.

If the E46 320cd is anything to go by (a mate has a 2006 one and it's great), this should be a cracking car.

Long may you enjoy it.
