Agreed. I think the twin tail pipes even on lesser M-Sport Pro's are visually more appealing than the standard oblong M340i/M340d style

Looks great! However are you going to be able to lug much around with the rear wheels being so snug under the arches?

Only benefit of the ovals is it’s the easiest thing in the world to keep clean 😀 but this looks much, much nicer....

The majority of the cost is the drivetrain warranty

Yeah as above, you're paying for a warranty more than anything. If they're covering warranty though, for £4K I'd want it to be tuned with a proper remap, not a tuning box that you can buy elsewhere for £400.

Would better be looking at a TuningBox solution then. Keeps manufacturer warranty and a lot cheaper!

That's a bit of a myth. If someone were to look, they could quite easily tell that a tuning box was fitted. Only way to keep your warranty truly safe is to not fettle with it!

Same, front end and wheels look too aftermarket for my taste. Rear is ok, and exhaust sounds good but too expensive for what it is.

There is no issue with clearances. You can carry the same amount as the standard car.
