    Great value - great looking car, cheap as chips and not going to lose value.

    Costs

    No problems with this 80k FSH example!

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Great on the open road. The heaviest clutch in the world makes it a pain around town.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great.

    I think it looks great. People stop me and tell me. I've had notes left on the windscreen offering to buy it. Metallic blue with chrome, the big wheels and cream leather.. what more can I say.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Noisey on the motorway without hardtop. Heated leather seats are a bonus on crisp winter roof down days. Rear passengers get chilly, but I don't sit in the back.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    No problems, but it is a convertible.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I don't use BMW unless someone else is paying. When they did (not for this BMW) the service was superb. Couldn't fault it. When I'm paying I use a local independant who really knows his stuff.
