BMW Dealer (Benham Wolves)were superb. couldn't do enough to help, made me feel welcome and constantly plied myself and my wife with coffee. the salesman made us feel like proper customers, a massive difference from these car supermarkets who are only interested in pushing as many through the door as possible

loads of leg room.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Aux port for i-pod, and heater/demister is superb inthe winter
