Very nice :)
Almost jealous actually. Didn't used to be a BMW fan but the newer models have grown on me.
Just not sure over the rwd after only ever driving fwd. - although I notice the x drive badge. Is that 4wd?
Bet the 3 litre shifts too?

Where did you buy from?

Where from?

I used to get the warsteiner ones and a mate bought me over a bitburger one. The bitburger ones are a nightmare. The top bung you push in to let air in when the beer stops flowing. What they don't tell you is you then cannot seal it again. So you have to drink all 5 litres in one sitting!

The warsteiner ones you just have another air valve on top that you can close. Is this the same?

Bought it from Booths, the Tap is on the side which you see in the photo and yea theres a air valve on the top, my local booths in Ripon has about 12 different Beers in these mini kegs

RWD is very good, except for in snow/ice (without winter tyres on). This is indeed 4WD, but only when it needs to be.

The 4WD addition, alongside the 8-speed sports flappy paddle box allows this to really haul some ass. I believe it only has around 250BHP, but 500+Nm of torque. From memory, 0-60 is around 5.2-5.4secs.

It feels just as fast as the big petrol engines ?35i but with even more power on the overtakes. Currently returning 44MPG, which is pretty sweet considering it isn't anywhere near bedded in yet.

As with most BMW autos, it has a few 'modes'.

Sports+ = stays in the powerbands for longer (until beneficial to shift up/down); firms up steering; firms up accelerator pedal; (unsure if it does anything to suspension) and disables Traction control (to allow wheel spin - essentially stops the tricky electronics from underpowering the engine until you gain traction)

Sports = stays in powerbands for longer; Steering and accelerator firm up.

Comfort = general all-round runner

Eco Plus = slackens steering, accelerator response, de-tunes engine for maximum economy. It actually computes how many extra miles you have gained by running in that mode (running total). When you put the accelerator to the floor, it re-tunes briefly.
