Our Bmw 420 Gran Coupe Arrives At Dealer
After waiting for ages since our car was ordered on 14jul, it has arrived. WE went for the sportline because
everyone seems to get m sport we preferred the 19 inch sportline wheels the wife hates a dark interior and the dark headlining of the m sport was a no no pick up on Wednesday when I will post pictures Glacier silver, coral red, same colour boomerangs,merino individual wheel One thing I did notice was that it was quite hard to shut the drivers door, is this normal because of the pillarless design, anyone with a f36 care to comment ??

Popped to the closed dealer this evening, car sitting in showroom, ready for collection in the morning. GC 's, look so much better in the flesh, I find pictures make the look tall and narrow, just hope the weather holds out for pictures.

Great looking car. Love the four pillar less doors. Will definately have a look next time I'm buying as it offers the hatchback I need but I'd be concerned about the rear height for passengers and that middle squab looks like no go for a 5th passenger.

Just inquiring how you find them ie harshness, road noise, role etc. this may have been covered already if so sorry if you are repeating yourself.
Had them on the E46 and found them harsh and noisy then changed to the verdestien brand whole different world, fab, however will need to change from the 0001's soon so just like to know opinions regarding F1's

To me they are fine, I have adaptive and think the ride is great considering they are RFT, much better than my e92 was on RFT. They are a bit noisy but then the f31 isn't the best sound deadened car and it's no worse than the demos I had which were on contis I think. Can't remember totally but they weren't f1's.

Yesss you made some great choices there.
Love the extended red on the dash - generally on here people don't like that aspect of Coral but I think it's grand (pun unintended) I do like the glossy black bits on the front, the really go well with silver. Overall the lines of the GC are sumptuous, and door open with windows down does look cool. "Individual" on your steering wheel - lol I have Individual leather and bloody paint but it doesn't say it anywhere! I know you chose just the individual wheel but that's just not fair! Two cars with the same reg?... not sure you're allowed to do that mate PS nice parking in the other pics

Yeah, parked like that, to get the CUP and SAUCER in the background, that's what the fortification is called, changed the green reg after the photo, my son wants the old plates for his room ?
