F30 340i M Sport - Car Progress thread now 5100 :)

Not that anyone cares but it keeps me amused!

Car has now changed to 5100 at Body shop.

The agent just said you BMW Touring is at body shop... I have quickly replied to say I hope you mean Saloon

My car is showing up on the Vin decoder but with build date of 0001-01-01

Does this means its built ! or does the decoder now show vehicles already in production?
