Thats what told the salesman. Cause I said that dads bringing the X5 along to fit the seats in. He asked what do you mean?? I said oiginals seats. He said not sure about that I;ll have to talk to the manager. i said well they don't send the car out of the factory with out seats. and as the JCW seats are a spare seat what would BMW want with a set of seats

A lot of dealers sell them on ebay - do the same with old bumpers when they fit the aero kit - nice little earner

Yep, keep onto them. I think your entitled to them, unless the car comes out of the factory with the JCW seats, which i doubt.

I'd keep both sets & then you can always fit the standard ones & sell the JCW's seperate when you sell the car.
BTW when do you get your car?

threaten the dealer not to bother with them (the dealer) fitting the JCW seats, and you will fit them yourself.

They will be worried about losing out on their fitting costs and you could perhaps get it done somewhere cheaper, if not yourself if they are going to be a pain in the arse about it
