I guess not! - but honestly I'll always have a soft spot for BMW as an everyday drivers car I don't think they can be matched - except for Porsche but they are not really as practical. But I think their price/quality balance is starting to dwindle, some of the parts on the new one series do look and feel cheap. All the talk around front wheel drive and three pot engines is damaging their identity a bit I feel, should be drivers cars not everyone's cars...

Apart from the Valeter, I don't know how anyone can keep their cars clean in this weather. Within 24hrs it looks as if you haven't washed it for weeks.

By the way, how on earth can a handover last for 3hrs; what did he cover?

'She' was very conscientious and we went through literally every button on the car with a detailed description of what it does which was very useful. We spent a few minutes round the back with a new range rover as well, which looked very nice. The panels seem very flush in comparison to the outgoing model, barley any gaps or overhangs, a sign of quality production!

They actually put a complimentary safeguard treatment on (I think by accident) but I'm still going to have my detailed over to give it a proper going over as safeguard is effectively just a hard wax like collinite. So I'm having a Glare treatment - recommended by honest John and fifth gear. The spiel is that is bond to the paint to create a glass like molecular structure that last for five years protecting the paint. The I'll probably keep up with hard a soft waxes each season respectively, and a lot of jet washing.... A lot.

Laura was my rep, she was very good as I had a lot of questions that I don't think the average dealership would have spent the time finding the answer to...

I'm loving the car so far - cant wait for the 3+ hour trip back to London this morning Very Happy
