They were *almost* the least satisfying cars of ANY type I've ever driven. Truly over-rated. The Proton was the worst. Second worst was the E36 328 touring with Alpina suspension and rims. ****, that was TRULY AWFUL. It was also only about a year old at the time. I've never been in such a hideously uncomfortable car. |

BMW dealers IMHO in the UK are a bunch of ******s and complain when you call them that, rather than addressing your problems with them, and BMW(GB) don't seem to care. Perhaps if their sales dropped off they might. I'm personally surprised that BMW(GB) don't read this group and others - and take note. Because no one on here - or elsewhere - has a good word for them. -- *Income tax service - We‘ve got what it takes to take what you've got.

Now you are srarting to think. Wouldn't it be nice, though'but if they were to consider the political / marketing / socially responsible effects of encouraging the ideas of maintaining the planets resources through reliability and longevity of design? They've actually built a car that will 'run for ever' and they choose to penalise me because I bought one. See? Now I'm rambling. Curse you, Turner! |
