..................sorry BC

Oi Oi.....

6k miles in and one incident on the Merc (limp mode to the engine throwing a hissy fit) to date (and a few minor quality issues which have/are being sorted - torn dash stitching and slow rear seat folding motor), aside from that, it's a lovely place to be.

Still loving the BM too, just ticked over 20k  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass

I've just clocked up............. 400 miles in my Bm.

And you bought a diesel because?

I've only done 500 in my RRS, but I would've got the petrol V6 given the option...  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

Gone but not forgotten:
2014 RRS2 SDV6 HSE in Loire Blue
2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE in Santorini Black

The 340 wasn't avaiable when i ordered my d.
I like the power delivery of the d.

I have become attached to my company van i have been using while waiting for my car...

If you've become attached to the van the BMW can't be that good

^^^^

I like to save the Bm for Sunday best. Going to Church in. Our car park at work can be very dusty and i like to keep my car looking clean, hence using the van daily.

Yeah - you keep telling yourself that

Sounds like a beancounter tax avoidance scheme

So you've had it 4 weeks, done 400 miles and only use it for going to church - your church must be a long way from home

What are you implying

They are all business miles Muddy. Honest. All my taxes are paid in full. How else do you think we can afford to keep taking all these immigrants....

I pick up all the parishioners. Morning mass & evening mass.

From someone like you who runs own business, provides employment and pays a load of tax

You know what to do then...340i is calling...  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

The 340i may be calling.....but the car in front is a 335d  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

The guys that have the 340i say it is a cracking car. Most of them admit, they went for the petrol over the diesel for the sound of the engine.

Now you have confused Muddy.... That is where he has been going wrong all his life.
