Sheesh ... it's like a tradition on this board.

It's warranty, not warrantee.

Always see it on this board but never anywhere else ...

The run-in inspection is 1,250 miles, with an undisclosed upper limit of 1,750.

I was toying with the idea of an M3 very recently but have withheld so far. It'll cost far more to run an M3 than it currently costs to run both the S and my beater, not even taking into account the purchase cost; so it didn't make a lot of financial sense to switch.

Lots of info on www.bm3w.co.uk

It's always the perceived costs of M cars that worries me.

Never too sure how true they are?

I have been looking at 1 year old Z4M Coupe's as they are nicely priced at

is it 12-15k ish or 1 year. I do about 6000 miles a year so would that mean I could service it every 2 years?

What is the order of services? is it oil, I, II ?

I dont think my wallet is big enough, well it is, its more I just cant bring myself to run such a car! that and I have a very random salary, I earn a good wage but its mainly commission and can fluctuate vastly!
