Expect to see "HONEST, UNBIASED & INFORMATIVE" car content mainly around my current daily - 2020 BMW M4 CP (F82) and 2021 VW Golf GTI Mk8 and other modern classics which are becoming a rare sight on our British roads.
Might even do some 'how to' vlogs and vlog on car meets and international Motor Shows!

I'm torn between a raw 2015 F82 M4 with DCT and a G82 M240i. The main reason is that the latter is still under warranty and it's essentially a 2-year-old car versus a 10-year-old one.
Just purchased a Heritage M4 in velvet blue. 5k miles. You raise valid points. The Icon headlights are a must have. I'd recommend people get familiar with the optional extras list as there are some great options available eg HUD etc.
there is enough leg space in the back seats. We tested it... if you take the M pack on it it has the dark ceiling --- it's your choice really... don't break down a car that you didn't get the other options on. If you have the memory options on the seats it will also go forward and back automatically so, it's in how you configure the car...Like picking a black car and saying it would look nicer in white..
I have air suspension and the same rims as you, will changing to 20" significantly improve comfort? On 21" I have the comfort as in the previous a4 b9 and 18" rims, which is not very optimistic..
I had 20s on my last one, they definitely were more comfortable. 21s look great and do fill the arches better. I’d be content with air suspension and 21s
I have the same issue, it happened to me the second day after I bought the car, brand new. Called the dealer and they told me to turn it off, walk away from the vehicle with the key for 20 mins and turn it back on. Not great. Did that it fixed the issue. I have MK8.5, it's the facelift with the new steering wheel with physical buttons. What I noticed is that while driving I also had low battery on the key, this is what I think because it was showing me randomly while driving that key is not detected for a couple of a 1 second and disappeared from the screen. So what I did now (today actually), I replaced the battery on the key, also disabled the keyless go features so the car won't react on the key presence nearby. I don't know if this will fix all the issues, I'm just experimenting at the moment.
Some updates on this one, after changing the batteries of the key the car still randomly saw it not nearby, so this is not the issue. The golf system is simply faulty
im currently cross shopping a mk7 gti vs 2013-15 Audi a7.. I love the GTI but dont care about the R, I feeel like if i want the awd i mine aswell go A7... Love both cares but cant quite decide.
Does anyone know if the LCI non comp has a revised map over the pre LCI non comp? I've just bought a late 2017 non comp and was told the LCI's aren't as spikey as the earlier cars.
Hi, could you let me have a link to where you got your bodykit from. Was the black section on the door factory because it's really nice. I'm going to Motech soon.
I am actually at a crossroads..i have a F82..have a chance to get a Comp..but the 2023 M240 is also an intriguing prospect. The M240 will have 3 years worth of Bmw motorplan..the F82 Comp..only 1 year left. Is the G42 m240 that far off from a F82? I cant afford a G82..those prices are just nuts. The 23 G42 is similarly priced and lower mileage.
The D is now rare to find even on the used car market. The ones you find available on autotrader are the pre MHT models which were basic spec and come from fleet companys like Thrift. I would avoid these as they have not been looked after well and do not feature a lot of the spec that the individual specced cars from 2022 had. You can never go wrong with the D as long as you service it regularly as advised and also make sure at least once a week you give it a good long run.
