Went to Sytner Nottingham today to take a look at the trim. I much prefer the brushed - look great in the 1er.

By chance they had a gorgeous 1er hatchback M Sport model in Alpine white with the brushed silver - looked amazing, I couldn't believe how well the white suited it.... made me very happy!

Anyway, back to the allocation... a great sales guy there (called Dan) told me that Sytner Nottingham only has an allocation of 2 1 series coupes - ALL ENGINE types for June / July delivery!

Supply is so limited that they will not have a demo 135i until September, and they have no date for a 123d demo... and they have just sold theirs.

I read that there is an allocation of just 400 1er Coupes for the UK. Bad news for ordering, but it's good as we will all have pretty rare cars!

BMW are apparently trying to keep supply low and the car rare - do they think sales of the hatchback will decline??
