Awsome build quality and great value for money

I bought this car (a 2010 model) last month, only 3000 on the clock, fully speced up, but with a discount of the new price of about £8000!
This is the 5th BMW I have owned over the years, and the service received from BMW garages in the UK and France where I travel quite a lot, it absolutely second to none.
The drive is very direct and the ride a little firm. Grrat economy at motorway speeds, and you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy!! It is so comfortable and easy to drive.
Having considered Mercs in the past, I am glad I have remained faithful to the BMW brand.
Buy one, you can't really go wrong with a 3 year warranty and inclusive servicing!
