Biscuits Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 So much grunt low down amazing, less stressful than the M3 yes, better economy yes, I love it. Love the pictures... where were you? Essex coastline? What sort of mpg have you seen... I know it's early days, but interested to see if BMWs "combined" mpg figures are still their accurate self. BTW, what's the red badge/section on the number plate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always put my own Plates on cars, Number 1 show plates is where I get them from, so custom made.Economy is unbelievable, in all the wind we art getting now I am getting 30+ MPG @ 80 MPH, it's hard to believe but true. I did 100 miles today in high wind and got 30.7 MPG veritable speeds. It's so fast, the pick-up is mental quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
