Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It doesn't handle as well as my 330D. There's a bit of body roll & the throttle feels a bit stiff. The looks more than make up for all that ..
What's it like to park?
Very good. The bonnet is quite long so be careful.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No problems at all. It is a bit thirsty though.
What's most practical about your car?
It's a convertible so it's not meant to be practical. I guess the heated seats & electric hood are a great bonus.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Electric hood
