Reasonable running costs, nothing spectacular, great if you have free servicing pack.

On the road
Driving
Great fun, this car truly flirts it's way around.
Performance
Good pull away, a little sluggish from 30-60mph. Tiptronic is more of a novelty than a practicality and makes it thirsty to run. Auto very smooth and a real pleasure to bob around town or motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
So far, so good. With appropriate servicing should run for years.
Image
Need I say more? Great for young or old alike. Makes you smile a lot.
Comfort
Typical BMW firmness, a little too firm perhaps? You are aware you're in a quality car. Not at all flimsy in any way.

Security
Alarm is non standard which is a shame.
