Standard 19 are 225/40 front, 255/35 rearInteresting, what are those sizes?
Didn't know that they did star PS4S in standard 19 inch BMW sizes...but I'd go for the standard PS4S for its better wet performance anyway.

I can't find the * marked versions for PS4S, only the standard.Standard 19 are 225/40 front, 255/35 rear

Ok, I looked on Camskill and couldn't find the 255/35/19 with * mark (only PSS*). 225/40/19 I can see in PS4S* though. My front tyres are 255/35/19, so if they've got a * marked PS4S already then that means that should I choose to go * marked all round I can get the right sizes.I got a full set from Camskilll, they are showing the 225/40 r19 * in stock just now. Kwikfit get both sizes in regularly sometimes cheaper than the standard version.
I've had a couple of loan M340is they both had PS4S on them.

Great! My front tyres are relatively new PS4S and I've got a new pair of back tyres sat waiting in the garage until I swap them as they were a good deal, so won't need any for a good year yet, but nice to know I'll have the option if I want when I do change.They are not showing the 255/35 as likely out of stock, I got two 255/35 r19 * from them a few months ago. It was a problem when I was getting them managing to get a full set in the same type as lot of places were out of stock of either standard or approved ones I think it was Ford approved ones Kwikfit/Black Circles had in stock at the time.

Prices rising across the board, a £15k m135 1 year ago is now £18-19k, good time to sell bad time to buy...
It's only a good time to sell if you want to downgrade or take up cycling. Because your next car is probably up by more than the growth in value of your current one..
Yep same with housing. I remember my mate bragging his 2 bedroom house had gone up from £200k to £300k in 2 years and sold within 1 hour at full asking when it went on the market. He said he made more money than working. Until I asked him where he was moving to and he was staying in the same area but getting a 3 bedroom house so the kids could have separate bedrooms and his new house was costing £375k. I said he had actually lost money then as chances are the 3 bedroom house was only £250k when he bought his 2 bedroom house so would have only cost £50k to swap and now it was costing him £75k to swap.
It is a great time though for anybody who ordered their new car at the beginning of the year and about to get it in the next month and hence bought new when discounts were still good and will now get top price for their old car.
Flip side is that whilst he has a bigger mortgage in terms of £, he also likely has a much bigger % of equity from that 100k upside so his cost of borrowing may be materially lower...so not all negative.
Assuming the house prices keep increasing and he eventually cashes in by selling and then renting or downsizing. Until then he is spending more.
If you never cash in or downsize then you would be better off if they had never gone up in value.
Its like anybody paying a £5k to £10k premium now to buy a used car. Once normal supply of new cars return and second hand cars become plentiful, used car values will fall back to where they were and people will suffer big drops on their cars.
That's not really true because:If you never cash in or downsize then you would be better off if they had never gone up in value.
No, you can't as if it's not enabled the car won't have the wireless adaptor fitted and BMW won't retrospectively do it (well, they wouldn't for me). It is however extremely easy to order one and fit yourself plus get the car coded for it. Depending on where you get the unlock code from you may have to disable CarPlay it prior to the car going in for a service. My M140i has one on it which doesn't need to be disabled and it was fine after a service (after re-pairing my phone).can you get CarPlay enabled by a dealership
Good to know, thank you. I don't think it'd be a deal breaker but very used to having it on current carNo, you can't as if it's not enabled the car won't have the wireless adaptor fitted and BMW won't retrospectively do it (well, they wouldn't for me).
