Surely you bought it because it was a BMW, if you want frugal & cheap ownership then surely buy something that doesn't contradict with meaning of economical!!
Wanted to like it but Id sooner have a D3 for that kind of money.

[QUOTE=markwneale,Feb 29 2008, 03:11 PM] Not so.
If one's definition of economical (as it is in my case) is competitive monthly contract hire cost, low maintenance costs, reduced BIK taxation then BMWs are 'economical'. Mini's more so - my optioned to the hilt Cooper Clubman costs me less in BIK than my Prius (even though the Mini was more expensive and not an eco-hybrid) and with a service deal for 80K miles costing just over
