Thanks for the heads up. When I inquired the dealer said they always give out loaners. But they're Evoques or similar.
Any case, we put a deposit down on an LWB order yesterday. Fortunately, the dealership was flexible on the refund-ability of the deposit (said they only require no refunds if, for example, you're ordering a hot pink one). So we can get our cash back out if something dramatic changes between now and when it arrives.
Curious to see how long the process takes what with the economy's sudden stop. The UK seems to be doing business as usual...
Thanks again to everybody for their input...it's why Bimmerpost is the best car forum around!
