Anyone want a set of summers with delivery mileage?
Yeah might have to do that.

You would think they may sell them cheaper as its summer and then ramp the prices up closer to winter.

I will keep a look out and see what comes about over the next couple months. Might even be worth to get them from germany and get them shipped across. I seen on ebay normally ~£100 for shipping but they are cheaper than dealers by a mile

They are sometimes dealers themselves. Mine was. Was on for £1400 plus £30 delivery. Got it for £1300 delivered direct.

Ok forked out for the tyres now too. Pirelli staggered 19s cost about £1250. The retailer said the star mark and non mark has no difference.

Bmw don't even offer staggered 19s on winters. They have the square setup and charge an arm and leg for it - hence the star mark is only on the fronts not rears.

The specs are still fine so not expecting insurance or warranty issues at all.
