Bean's BMW

Bean, the X6 went in for its first free service today (6,800km) and my loaner was a 320d M Sport. What a really nice car it was.

Great handling, quick but not a screamer and because I haven't tested it before, I liked the integrated DAB+ (lots of our stations are still AM here) Your 520d M Sport must be a nice car. I had a thoroughly good punt in the 3 and I really enjoyed it. Happy to get back into the X though.

I had the oil and filter changed (not covered under the plan for the first service believe it or not). Guess how much?

165 quid or $300 of my hard earned. Not sure even RR can top that?

Blimey, they do know how to charge there BKHK. I can't believe those items aren't included in your plan.
I recently had the first service (just over 18,000 miles) and it was completely gratis, even got a software update too.

To be honest, I didn't relish moving from an RRS to the 5 series, but I have to admit, it is a nice place to be, and I really enjoy driving it. As you say, it's not a supercar by any means, but still a nice place to be and 'fast enough'. My girlfriend seems to have got rather attached to it too, despite her having a FFRR to drive around in.... I think it was the heated steering wheel on a cold UK day today, and not having to fill it up every 100 miles Laughing

Been spoilt looking at exotica cars today, I'm in Singapore and was lucky enough to catch the GP last night. The wealth here is obscene at the best of times, but when the F1 rolls into town, it's a whole new level.

I was also lucky enough to get a sneak at LaFerrari Cool which is an unbelievable piece of kit. It's not allowed to be registered or driven here as it's only in LH drive and costs north of SGD 3m once all the taxes are applied Thud ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Same here - I'm really enjoying the 320d, ticks all the boxes for me for the time being and it's actually a really nice drive with the M Sport Performance Pack.

Dropped number 2 off at uni last week, 580 miles round trip on one tank and averaged 52mpg Whistle FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
