I think this looks great tbh. Very much a clean sheet approach, this is BMW making a statement and doing it well. The price is a bit optimistic imo, but that's probably just me being out of touch with what cars go for nowadays.

I must admit, the frothing from the simpletons in the comments is spectacular :cry:

Somewhat being out of touch - something brands like Nissan are struggling with at the moment as for example a decent spec Qashqai is... £40+K (and you won't get any change out of £30+K for an OK spec) - which is still BMW money in a lot of people's minds, so they go nope and walk away and then find they can't afford BMW, so buy something cheaper - which used to be Kia but even they are Nissan money or more these days so it tends to be the Chinese stuff like Jaecoo
 
Do any charging apps actually work properly? The Ohme app has always been a bit unreliable I've found. Switching to an Eon smart tariff recently and using the related Eon app instead of the Ohme one, I set Eon to charge to 80% by 7:15am and at 6:45 it was charged to 98%. Unlike the Ohme app it's staying connected to the BMW API but sill a bit rubbish it seems. I then tried to check I've not been charged extra due to charging outside of the 6.5p window but that different Eon app not even showing energy usage for recent days either. The smart aspect is supposed to charge the vehicle outside of the cheap period if low demand, so is supposed to be at 6.5p still.

Anyone else on the Eon SmartDrive tariff (v5.4 I think). How do you find it?
