Same. So I’m happy to pay that and have somebody else replace it as my back means I’m in no fit state to do it myself.

Yup, it’s why I’m never keen on cars with sunroofs. I much prefer to have windows closed and air conditioning on.
Car was a fully loaded spec with decent mileage and only example that was within a decent radius from where I live, so I overlooked the sun roof as it had everything else.
Wow, co-incidence or not, my 440i did the same too...low coolant bong this morning
Bought some HT-12 from ebay for £14 inc delivery just waiting for it to arrive.
Topped up with some RO water in the meantime
I hope topping it up once in nearly 4 years doesn't mean the engine has developed a leak...we shall see...

My next car will be an Audi or a Mercedes.

I'm just not interested when they go for a new design language especially when Audi and Mercedes competing products both still look great. The new Audi S5 looks great, if it's anything like the new 5 series then the new 3 series won't be for me. I'll keep my current one as long as I can, because it's a fantastic car, but if need to replace it before BMW have changed direction then it'll be from one of the other two manufacturers.

Some of that interior of the new X3 looks a bit, how can I say, cheap and scratchy?
It’ll take a while to heat up because the car is stationary. Mine’s has a 30 minute limit and it can take until the 15-20 minute mark before the windows start defrosting depending on the temperature.
A shame you can’t activate the heated screens remotely.
Which car do you have?
Unless it's an electric or plug in hybrid then all this option does is switch the ventilation fans on in the car remotely. It won't defrost the car or heat it.

Well, that's entirely pointless then.
