Something missing?
Does anyone know about these two things:
Firstly, I'm sure I saw/read that the boot floor that hinges up to reveal the hidden space underneath had a pneumatic lift to hold it up. Mine doesn't. Is that an optional upgrade? Secondly, the front charger point by the cupholders does not work. The one in the boot does. Any ideas? Thanks |

This is a brilliant piece of information, I had no idea that was there;
"It's either a fuse or a loose wire, probably the wire. How about the one hidden beneath the glove box next to the driveshaft tunnel? I think the same fuse works both. The one in the trunk is fused in a separate box in the back." The hidden charger point DOES work. |

Steve, I'm pretty sure that only comes with the 'Extended Storage' option.

Update on the charger issue. Took the car into BMW Tring to fix the charger point in the centre console. They found that it does actually work, but not with my charger cable. The curious thing is that my charger cable does work on the boot charger and the hidden one under the glovebox. They couldn't explain why that was but solved it by selling me a special BMW charger for £22 which does work in the centre console.

By charger cable do you mean for a phone? I use the USB connector underneath the center arm rest. £22 for a cable is highway robbery, even for BMW. I can practically hear the salesman saying 'Stand and deliver!'.

It's the bit that plugs into the charger socket. I bought a double charger (2 USB sockets) so at least I feel like I have had an overall benefit from the process.
