What a car [:O]
Only criticism so far is the bloody traffic report thing interrupting everything REALLY LOUDLY - guess I should read the manual tonight!!
Took it pretty easy on the way home as the wife was passengering and she's 6 months pregnant - reset the computer and managed an average MPH of 69.4 and 28.8 MPG - pretty impressed with that.
Just went out again alone and really had a play - "just popping to Halfords to get some screenwash" [:I] - 60 mins later I've tackled a couple of dual carriageways, a chunk of the A3 and some bendy bits - wahey [:D] Must have been one of the few drivers with the windows wound down when it's 2 degrees outside!
Couple of pics taken just after I'd collected the keys...

Cheers guys - have already got some LED front wing indicators ( no not nasty Lexus type lights for me!) and a couple of nifty Audi sunglass cases that replace the grab handles and a Toureag LED torch to replace the fag lighter - haven't got spare cash at the mo for pricey mods as I've got to get the AVIC X1, phone kit and Origin B2 reinstalled :D
Will of course be requiring some xenon reversing lights please Teddy - will have to check the manual for size.
Next up wil be to tint the windows, and Milltek exhaust in the Summer (or when I sell my house)
Will get some more pics taken soon - here's the interior shot taken by the dealer for me...

...cosy heated Konigs!
Did have to get a lumbar suppport for the missus from Halfords too - she didn't like the seats on her achey back :rolleyes:
What you can't see from those pics is the brushed aluminium trim - it's not just painted plastic like the BMW Sport trim but the real thing - nice!

And those front seats are niiiice
Congrats, and health to drive

[ok loving the seats, why did BMW take out the darth vadar seat :mad: I loved them on E36 M3, E46 M3 seats are just too subtle for me

Yep, it's got xenons Teddy - but I've got the bulbs I bought off you for the 528 still - dunno if they are the same size though?
I've got some superwhite Osram sidelights on order via group buy at UKMKIVS.net, but will be needing those indicator bulbs changing if it's possible - hope the plastic isn't coloured :(
Will only be the front ones though as I've got LED side indicators to fit and the rears are smoked! (As was the Maxpowered Ka Sport that tried to have a go this afternoon :D )
Hell youve got to hang around here with that thing for sure [cool
