I’ve just been on BMW online chat and have finally changed from 049.
The current order status is 111 – capacity checked. This was updated on the 28th September 2023.
This means your order has been scheduled by the factory, but is yet to go into production.
The estimated production week is week 9 in 2024, this commences from the 27th February 2023. This may be subject to change.
This is quite a bit later than I was first quoted (late November) but I’m just glad to have moved from 049!
