BMW 540i
2018 GTR
F90 M5
X3MC

RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it
F10 M5, awesome but no rear grip
RS6 V10 700BHP crazy
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 600bhp

Yeh - the more I look at it, the more I love it :) I had some doubts yesterday (the ones where you're thinking "have I done the right thing?"), but after having some time to reflect on it (and let it sink in!!), I'm well chuffed :)

So, as a sideline, what's the deal with this "4th key" and the upholstery then - is it anything to have concern over?

She's a beaut.

I use Liquid Leather on my leather seats and trim. Cleaner first then treatment cream. The leather cream smells of leather and really brings out the original smell of the upholstery. Be careful with some treatments as they make the leather slack and enhance any unwanted impressions on the leather.

yeh, mine is a 99 with 87K (got it for £9.5K) - thankfully I've got a week of major work to do, so it will take my mind off it!! :D

Out of interest, how many keys did you get? ;)

Yes, sub is below the CD changer. Just turn up the volume and you can hear it (and feel it).

I got 2 main keys, a valet/service key and a black plastic key which could fit in a wallet although it is a bit thick and so I don't bother. Is this what you mean by "wafer key"?
