That’s great, thanks for your replies. I’ve currently got an Audi with tech pack that does multi connect Bluetooth, and never even thought to check that other makes / models also do this as you just get used and take for granted these things when they just become the norm (previously had a BMW 5 series touring and that didn’t do it). |

I've owned a 2004 C270CDI that wins the award for most unreliable car I've ever had in 30 years of driving (as was the dealer at fixing anything), a 1990 560SEC (weekend classic) that was rock solid (after fixing its "lack of love" for a few years), a 2008 CLS 320CDi (with Brabus chip) that was great (only 1 issue in 42 months of ownership) and a 2015 C300h that was off the road for 6 weeks for various warranty issues during my 14 month ownership experience (yep, about 10%!). On the BMW train I've owned a 1994 318i SE, a 2003 M3 and a 2006 330d M Sport, none of which caused me any major issues. Have heard BMW has also been struggling with reliability over the last decade however... About to jump on the 330e train :-) |

The lighting doesn't do the colour justice tbh… In case your wondering, you do get a year free Apple car play, before needing to subscribe. |

What are your thoughts on the car so far? If you could upload a video with the exhaust sound that would be great as well! Also, are planning to follow the break-in period? |

As far as I know, extended doesn't include the dashboard or the top of the doors, otherwise its the same.

Had my Mineral Grey beast for just over a week. Loving every second.
The break-in period sucks, the car literally wants you to floor it every time. |

I've been trying to get some insurance quotes and I am surprised how expensive it is to insure. Every provider is quoting around £1K, while my previous 5.0L V8 car was half that!
Did any of you guys find the insurance relatively expensive? |

QuoteMeHappy came in around £900 for me, with other providers being ~£1.5k - I'm still to arrange it though.
