Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Economy
Value
Excellent for retaining its value.
Costs
Running cost are high. Tyres are expensive and so is servicing. MPG does varify from good (30mpg on a good run) to poor (15mpg when pushed hard) depending on how you drive but this is what I expected.

On the road
Driving
Best handling car I've owned so far. Lots of fun to be had when driving hard along B-roads. When going around corners it handles as if it's on rails!
Performance
The engine is so smooth. Maybe more low down torque would be useful, I find that the engine pulls strong after 4,500rpm right up to the red line.

Living with it
Reliability
Feels better put together than most modern cars and like all things German, it will go on and on.
Image
Very understated, just the right amount of kit without being a boy racer car!
Comfort
I have got the 'M' pack on it which means the suspension is hard but you don't really notice it.

Security and Service
Service
The car is due a service in a couple of months. BMW Crewe have been very helpful in answering my questions regarding servicing, I just hope the service itself is just as good!
