I agree with the Atom, but certainly not the M5.

Just like the AMG Merc's, the M5 is just as boring IMO. I-fecking-Drive and a squillion buttons just to get it moving

Why didn't BWM offer a manaul version

Now the Z4M coupe is a decent drivers car. It recently recorded the same times as the 997 911 around the Nurburgring and looks like an awesome car. The Z4M Coupe will only come with manual, normal tyres, and normal steering... its about time BMW got 'back to basics'.

 

...plus it's a banana and too tarty.

And about as reliable as a TVR. Except TVRs are truly thrilling to drive and their dealers are nice people.

Sooner have a V2 rocket and a Graf Zeppelin.

 

Looks like it came out of a jelly mould. Performance/comfort aside I wouldn't go near one

 

Don't get me started on Merc dealers. The Smart has been in again this week and still not sorted properly. Just a minor issue but a real PITA that they can't get their arses into gear on it.

Best one was me leaving the car at the dealers for 6 minor issues that would take a total of 2 hours to fix. Car was returned a WEEK later and they hadn't done a single job.

Neil, have you EVER had a good experience at ANY car dealer?

 

I'm starting to think that.

Carlisle Honda have been spot on with me so far.

From previous marques, didn't have any problems with...

Subaru
Nissan
VW
Citroen

Mercedes Newcastle are well known for sh1teness. One of my mates had an AMG Merc and that was at the dealers half the time, not because the car was bad, just the dealer didn't do any of the work it was supposed to do.

Merc Newcastle are on the same road as Springfield Honda, maybe that's a coincedence?

The issue mine keeps on going back for is a plastic door handle that they scratched in February. Part cost must be

 

 

though an s will of course be slower the thing to remember a car will always feel much quicker when a passenger than when a driver...
