4 star review

Great to drive. High tech. Fantastic engine etc. But.... Damn expensive to get anything repaired or even diagnosed! Diagnostic check 150€. Replacement of hydraulic rear suspension 700€. Rear wiper motor: 400€. Intermittent rear bulb warning requires replacement light fitting. Make sure you replace windscreen with OE if you have HUD otherwise you get a double image like me! Run-flat tyres 300€ each and can’t find them anywhere when you need them - get a space-saver! PDC can be slow to initiate - reverse slowly - and it should be more sensitive at very close quarters - for me its on constantly too soon. Problems with: ingress of water into electronics via vent flap in offside rear wheel arch! BMW too busy here in Lyon - two weeks for a visit and another two weeks before they do the work!
