Don't these weigh about the same an M3 or M4?
Anyway, good write up. I hadn't realised how titchy they were inside, I've always seen them review by skinny small chaps and they make it look quite spacious.
I know this chaps presentation style and voice is a bit marmite but he does do a thorough review. Looks great

Yes but we are used to an F10 M5 and 6 series etc so it's light in comparison.Anyway, good write up. I hadn't realised how titchy they were inside, I've always seen them review by skinny small chaps and they make it look quite spacious.

It's not too small once your inside its just getting in and out of it.

You've got me worried now with the doors.....I'm over six foot and shall we say XL..... And I haven't sat in one yet.... And I can't wait to see my wifes face,she will expect just normal doors..... Roll on the 1st of March....
Like I said above once your in it there's loads of room it's just the door sill is awkward I think women with skirts on May have issues too :thumbup :If you have long legs you might be ok though, the doors are great so cool and take up less room than you think! Off topic but can I say your car collection is awesome I love Dakar yellow and we had a 840ci a few years ago in the same colour with only 30k on it when we sold it! Really miss that car and I'm sure we would buy it back in an instant if we got the choice.
I can't wait to see them all lined up with the i8

You are overweight in my opinion I am amazed you can even fit in the i8I looked at one today in Warrington - stunning in black with the blue highlights.
I'm 5ft 10 inches and 60 now.
Getting in and out wasn't too bad actually. The knack is to sit backwards onto the seat and then swing your legs in.
Swing legs out, move bum onto lip at bottom of door and stand up.
At least you won;t have to get in and out much at petrol stations.
Do they really make sense as a company car these days?
Stunning car.
Do they have a reversing camera as a rear wiper might be useful otherwise?
Quite tempted.
