When I got home and parked up,the warning message reappeared...

So I went straight out for a run down the coast road to charge the battery up....empty roads, glorious views across the English Channel, clear blue sky, glorious sunshine.......and, although I am not usually heavy with the right foot...the mood took me and I started red lining it....

I know it's only a two liter four pot...but that is a seriously good motor.


I stuck my 140i on trickle charge today - hasn't been used in weeks and won't be for a good few more..

Regarding 330i - looking at that as replacement - performance on paper seems good and 200kg lighter than M340i.. How do you find the mpg?
