I think it will be between £42,500 - £44,999, with a first year UK allocation of 350. I'm leaning towards a M240i x-Drive anyway, at least you can get the power down on that. Just been out in my FK8 and it does struggle to put the horse though on the damp / greasy conditions

The fk8 definitely struggles in those conditions and in the snow I was going nowhere in my residential car park whilst elderly drivers shot up the slightly inclined exit into the main road past me in their superminis lol!

I honestly don't know what to expect, but there's not long to go now!
I'm prepared for circa 45k +so if it comes in lower it will seem like a bargain ?

Officially I highly highly doubt it. But cars could be bought back by dealers and sold as used for an inflated price I'm sure...

I'm sure this happened with facelift boost blue FK8s in this country

The reviews from Autocar & Auto Trader have gone live. One says £46k, the other £47k both say it’s fantastic.
Not sure why is so bloody dear in the UK. At todays exchange the on the road cost in NZ including our clear car scam charges it’s £37.5k.

If those are correct prices then that's a complete scam and they can shove it where the sun don't shine. I'll either keep my fk8 or get a different car. That's taking the piss.

Based on the pricing in the U.K. I'd say hard to flip it ?
