Thanks, bit puzzled by the business media package, seems so poorly laid put compared to the merc I had.

It is, it's an afterthought really, I don't know why they persist with the stupid thing and don't just offer Professional as standard. I wouldn't have a BMW without Professional - in some other world markets, Pro is the only option.
Over 20000 miles in my 330D this year - it really is an awesome engine.
Enjoy
The engine is SO good that even though I despise diesels I actually bought one and actually really like it
So then, after 30 years without denting a panel on a car this morning I broke my duck, ironically on my way to OCUK to swap a bit. No one else involved bar a bleeping phone, someone not paying attention and a tight space misjudged. Speed of impact 10mph, annoyance factor 100%. Insurance claim made, into Shorade Monday morning for a quote and repair, done properly. Insurance company wanted some outfit in Stoke to do the work, I made them aware that was going to be a no.

I don't mind the wheels, they're better than my 17s but agree they'd take ages to clean.
Buying a new set is a pain - the sets on Ebay are all overpriced - one set has been relisted *SIX* times and still the seller hasn't got the hint that perhaps he has overpriced it. None of them ever seem to sell.
I think people look up the brand new price of wheels and tyres from BMW and assume half that is good value on the used market completely ignoring the fact there is zero demand at that pricepoint.
Mine are a classic example - fitted brand new when I collected the car with a list price of something stupid like £3.5k inc tyres (no idea how much the dealer paid or where they sourced them). Despite this I somewhat doubt they are worth any more than high 3 figures.
Perhaps I should value them at 50% of new price and continually re-list them on Ebay for the next 3 years

The man who types and never buys is back, after my brief affair with the idea of getting an E90 335i I've now started looking at the idea of getting an F30 328i instead.
So is there a good site where I can get a run down of the F30 model range. Looking on Autotrader there seems to be SE, Luxury, Business and Sport and then for later models there's also M Sport.
