    Eucalyptus wood dash seems to have faded

    Not a problem here in Scotland! ;)

    UK Finding/ using recharging points

    Just had an email from zap map telling me they have just released an app. Costs £4.99 though which seems a bit steep considering there are plenty of free alternatives. Anyone tried it?

    Automatic time/date adjustment

    Yes automatic adjustment is mentioned in the manual but also that it is market dependent - doesn't show up in my UK spec i3 for example. Seems bizarre not to though as it is quite happy to do all sorts of other stuff wih the 3G connection and automatic time adjustment would be trivial using that.

    Winter Package now standard in UK?

    My lease company contacted me a few weeks ago to let me know the order needed adjusting due to the winter pack changes and my P11D value and hence monthly lease cost has actually now gone down - expecting delivery on Wednesday!

    Ordered a 2014 but being built in 2015

    Well mine is a company car so may be different, but order was originally placed end of October with expected April delivery, however over Christmas delivery estimate was brought forward to mid February and it is scheduled to arrive next Wednesday. About 3 weeks ago the company car scheme...

    UK Finding/ using recharging points

    In advance of getting my i3 I've started following the ecotricity Twitter account for their chargers (@ElecHighway) and it seems that many of their charging locations are somewhat temperamental - so it may well not just be an i3 problem these days. At least they seem to regularly post updates on...

    Winter Package now standard in UK?

    Do you know what implication this has for vehicles already in the order system? I ordered my REX with the winter package and it is currently due mid-Feb. It's through a company lease scheme so not entirely sure on the specific stage it is at within the BMW process. Guess a call or email to our...

    Newbie question about i3 charging port

    In the UK I believe the Leaf uses a different connector than the i3 (type 1 vs type 2).

    UK smart / charge point

    Yeah think I'll have another chat with the dealer about the wallbox pure. The extra size isn't much of an issue as it will be installed inside my garage which is plenty big enough anyway, and if Scotland gets the £315 covered too (which from what I can tell is the case as it seems the OLEV grant...

    UK smart / charge point

    I'm in a similar position - i3 Rex anticipated to arrive mid Feb and trying to work out the best charging solution at home. As far as I can tell there are plenty of companies who can install a 3kW slow charger for free, some of which will install a 7kW for a modest extra fee (~£90-£100), and...

    Welcome to the BMW i3 Forum

    Hi All, Simon from Glasgow here. Been considering the i3 for a while and after a test drive and also having a read through the forum here I have decided to take the plunge and ordered one through my company car scheme. Going to be a long wait till mid-Feb! My normal commute to work is about a...
