Nice car, sorry VERY nice car. I will think of you every time I spend £80+ just for a top up.  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures

New car fits better with your forum name  Now driving a rather smart looking Van

I bet Mrs Bc offers to erect that towbar for you at every opportunity. Was that one of the options she ticked

Hi Beano

Nice looking BMW you have there. Glad you are still lurking around. 50mpg? I don't do enough miles to worry about fuel cost but in my current X5 40d I get 23mpg (I am a lead foot). We use lit per 100 km here but I have the trip computer switched to mpg. Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

A little advice, when you get accepted on one of the BMW forums, sorry, let's rephrase, if you get accepted by one of the BMW forums, then I would not brag too much about your Lycra addition  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures

Very nearly went down the BMW 530 GT route as there are some rally good deals on virtually new demonstrators.

Had one before and they're great cars but a bit boring as they do everything you need when you need it whereas a journey in the Sport has a sense achievement

I'm sure Beano is going to miss his sport when the novelty wears off....... Or when it snows...

All this grief, it's make one think twice about leaving the Forum.  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures

good to see the banter chaps

@ SRE - there are some proper tw ats on the BM sites for sure, I'll try and find a link to one "discussion" on watches........it's like the playground of a nursery
