I must have a touch of the sun.............
Just gone and ordered and brand spankers E71 in Vermilion Red with Beige Exclusive Nappa Leather and Style 214 Alloys - and lots of toys.
Should be here around November time.
At least the wait is less than the 10 months for my 2005 E53. Need to get in before the VAT increase strikes. Dealer added a complimentary 5 year service pack and paint protection pack.
Can't wait.................

Awesome news fella!
My dad will be green with envy! You've ordered the exact colour combo he would have went for!
He inittially wasn't sure to go for the X5 or X6, but ended up plumping for the X5 due to the fifth seat thing, but himself and i would both have went for the X6, had it not been for the sensible head. lol
Couple nice Vermilon Red X6 pics on here...
