    Lots of fun. Can get hairy in the wet, though.

    Good all round power. Enough to take most boy racers, but not an M3 though!

    Everyone loves my car. It's a BMW coupe!

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Seats need more grip. Other than that, fine. Good driving position, cramped in the back, but who cares? I don't buy a car to sit in the back.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Alarmed and immobilised, but for insurance needed a Cat 1 immobiliser to be fitted.

    Service

    Sometimes treat you as if they are better than you. That is why I go to my local BMW speacialist who are cheaper, friendly and look after you very well.

    Wonderful. 2.5 6-cylinder sound is glorious from tickover and the sound above 4,000rpm is superb.
