Omg those wheels are 🤢🤮

Cheers 👍 I've still not really driven it, waiting for some trim clips to arrive, thank you royal mail 🙄 Love the wheels, I shall try and keep them in the condition they are in lol Its not exactly an M140, no straight 6 or rwd bias, but im not one of those who deliberately gets the back end to step out, so its no issue to me 😄

Sounds like a Friday afternoon car, I've had a couple of those, an Alfa and a Jag.

There's nothing dignified about me 🤣

My German shepherd is just happy she can come for a ride in this one, big reason for getting a hatchback. I've never been able to bring myself to get an estate.

I'm 6ft 1 and I fit in behind my driving position.

@AJ500 nailed it. I've changed the ceylon grey parts to gloss black 😁 Anyway, enough about my German invader 😄

@AJ500 will do. Correct i have changed the mats, well spotted 😄 But its something I'd think is even more obvious, on the exterior. The dealer is fobbing you off. Somebody got 19% off only a few weeks ago. As I say, contact Tony, he's honest and will let you know where he's at immediately. Mine was a car on the production line that could be adjusted. Big discounts are achievable on BMW's, just find the dealer desperate to shift cars to make commission. I love the LC, stunning car.

@AJ500 Ahhh, that's not quite the change i was thinking of, but I have made a few enhancements 😄 They are 19's 552M bi colour diamond cuts, part of the plus package. Its supposed to handle better on 19's and the ride is definitely softer than on the RCF. I got a 14.5% discount on a new order, I guess given the brexit trade deal is done, dealers should know where they stand a bit better and deals should be there. I rushed my deal as I had to. 15% is about the best you can do, but I think one or two have done better. Try Tony at TRL, knows his stuff and no bs. You'll find more info on babybmw forum. I've literally driven it home and thats it. Seats ... dare I say... are more supportive and comfortable than the RCF's 😬 i'll know more after a motorway run. I'm expecting the economy long term to be slightly better than the V8, but there won't be much in it. I truly hope that Lexus up their infotainment game, idrive 7 is just wow in comparison.

That was my issue with the RCF, the power wasn't usable for me. Will miss the sound though 😭

Yep, a mighty 2.0 4 pot, 306bhp 450nm 0-62 officially 4.8, more like 4.4.

Its the M135i, so it has Xdrive as standard.

By way of an update, my new toy arrived the other day. Not had a chance to driver her yet, but first impressions are positive. Seats are awesome and overall build quality i have to say, is Lexus-esque. Steering wheel is too thick, only downside I can think of as of now. Can't comment on the drive yet. Pics are rubbish so apologies. The eagle eyed will spot a subtle change I've already made.

@Wood Butcher feel free. I'm not too hot on the specs to be fair, but I think all the boxes were ticked on her.

@Wood Butcher I actually meant the carbon fiber interior upgrade, the centre console around the gear area and the gear nob itself, upgraded with original Toyota parts in genuine CF. Much better than the grey plastic imho. The quick silver exhaust is definitely an improvement imho. The ceramic coat did all the work, I can't take any credit 😅
