Almost totally reliable....just had to replace one remote control. Love the engine and the 8 speed gearbox. Unfortunately mine came without adjustable damping, which is strongly recommended.

Bought from a BMW dealership about 9 months ago. Have replaced the tyres, but I expected that. In every other respect the car has been faultless - I spend a lot of time driving on motorways and this is a comfortable car - has the head up display option which makes using the sat nav a pleasure. Mostly driven in EcoPro or Comfort modes but the occasional use of Sport which you can really feel making a difference to how the car moves. Would recommend this car to anyone.

Head turning looks, very comfortable and fast, very reliable. Space tight in back for longer journeys but plenty of boot room. Feels like a cruiser not a sports car and Cornish roads can be a bit of a challenge due to size. Love it and wouldn't change it unless 2 seater was appropriate in which case would go for a Boxster.

What a superb car - real head turner. Looks the part, very responsive, fast, economical, reliable, in short it's got it all.

This car was frankly my dream car. Had the looks of an expensive powerful car, a frugal engine and sports car like performance. Sadly though everything on it is made from either cardboard or chocolate. I bought approved used with 8k miles on the clock and over 12 months it's needed: - New battery - Windows stopped closing properly (would auto open) - Using the keys would reset idrive settings - sold from approved used dealer with 3 Buckled alloys - needed discs and pads replacing within 10,000 motorway miles - steering wheel worn so badly at 14,000 it needed replacing - exterior trim started falling off - car handelling wobbles constantly (still). I've tried sorting and it's taken that long with BMW that I'm out of warranty now and left with a money pit. Honestly buy something else.

Great cabin quality. Running costs are ok for a car of this type, not exactly cheap but what do you expect. Refined ride, not a lightweight sports but great grip and feedback.
