Pricey to buy and fix, but expect to pay for the badge and quality. Worth spending the extra over a VW from what I've seen.

Very expensive to repair and upgrade. e.g 1 x new Xenon headlamp £350 + vat!

Driving
A great drive. Having driven 2WD cars previuosly, this adds a whole new dimension. Corners superbly and holds power throughout.
Performance
Very quick once you have the turbo going. Will demolish most other cars in its calss. Watch 3 Series's + GTI's dissapear in the rear view mirror!

Reliability
Touch wood have had no issues. I sounds like a well made piece of kit from inside and out.
Image
Very cool. Undeniably sexy and will impress people on the inside too. Good listenening to passengers sqeal as you hammer it.
Comfort
Very well refined and comforatble. Worth spending the extra for leather. All switches in the right place. German engineering, need i say more?
