Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
It aint a bargain, but its a baby BMW and you know it when you drive it
Costs
30 mpg is the best you get when commuting but the tlc package makes servicing affordable. Tyres are very pricey

On the road
Driving
A hoot! Sports suspention plus well worth having. Will out run more powerful cars on a tricky back road. Inspires confidence with spot on handling
Performance
Quicker than its given credit for. Keep the revs up and it makes rapid progress, feels a good second quicker from 0-60 than the quoted 9.2 sec. Will suprise many 'quicker' cars and sounds good too.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems at all.

The only car to have at the mo, seriously cool!
Comfort
Ride a bit choppy but composed, tweaked suspention and big wheels don't help, but if you can live with it its worth having. Seats are fantastic and the interior is a nice place to be

Security and Service
Security
No one has nicked it yet, seem to like vandalising it though!
Service
Kept me well informed, but a four month waiting list is a pain
