Hi,
I had a fully loaded 14 plate M235i, I loved it, the wife hated it, the ride really annoyed her. I had to pick her up from hospital, she requested the MX5, when I turned up in the 235 she was annoyed.
So I bought a 530d M Sport, what a car, fast, comfortable loads of mpg, but not even close to an M car.
Move on 2.5 years, 0% on real M cars. Now I am the proud owner of a M4. It’s like night and day to the M235i, the suspension is sooooo nice, even the other half likes it, until I put it into sport or sport+ mode.
I’m still running it in, however it seems a hell of a lot quicker than the 2 series. I know it’s a hell of a lot more expensive, but 0% makes a big difference to monthly costs.
