    What a disaster. ☹️
    Did you order before July?

    The following is taken from the BMW blog site;

    “Starting July 2020, the BMW Operating System 7.0 will become standard on all BMW 3 Series Sedan and Touring models”

    https://www.bmwblog.com/2020/05/27/bmw-3-series-idrive-7/

    This means two things;

    1) The car was manufactured pre the changeover in or around July. And,

    2) If you were led to believe you would get the OS 7, (the website confirms this is correct as of today), then you are within your rights to reject the car as it was mis-sold. This is covered under The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008. Basically this is a top-up to The Trade Descriptions Act and is there to cover us from being mid-sold products.

    Car sales people are notorious for doing this. They rely on the fact that most will just accept what’s put in front of them.

    Hope this helps and good luck.

    ? I will be remembered for nothing but had great fun doing it ?
