The bouncy front end will settle down within 1000 miles. My dealer told me that and he was spot on.
Regular greasing the front suspension helps as well.
Squeaks and rattles, for example check side screens, and bonnet catches.
Try not to laugh when you switch on the wipers.
Most of all enjoy your new motor.

Don't forget that coming from an M3W he won't know what a windscreen is let alone wipers!  DWBlues -welcome to the 4 wheel v. 3 wheel banter! Enjoy your new car & have great fun!

Don't despair! I've had my 4/4 now for c18 months and the bouncy ride squeaks etc have all died down. The car drives so much better top down and side screens off. You will love it, promise.

Congratulations! As has been said, the ride will settle down (although probably won't match the Three Wheeler) and the various squeaks and rattles are just the car talking to you...you'll get use to them! You may find the first service will cure some of those as will oiling the beading, coating the bonnet tape with Vaseline etc!!
