    What does this car say about you?

    Not really concerned what others think, to me it says "treat yourself, you've earned it!".

    Mostly impressed, the odd ones who are not are probably jealous.

    Probably, can't think of a reason not to - unless I need more doors or seats.

    Having driven BMWs for 15 years+, I'd struggle to buy anything else.

  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Having 272BHP available makes the car a pleasure to drive, especially on motorways & good 'A' roads. Only negative is runflat 'noise', seriously thinking of standard tyres at next renewal.

    What's it like to park?

    Not a problem, variable power steering & a handy 'dipping' near side mirror makes parking near the kerb a breeze (& prevents damage to the alloys!).

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    Not had, or expecting any problems.

    What's most practical about your car?

    Not really practical, that's not why you buy a 3 litre coupe. It IS however possible to get 2 child seats in the back & have done a 200 mile journey with 4 adults on board.
