Discussion
I've just ordered one of these as I fancy something a bit fun and that can help put a dent in my monthly fuel bill. I've gone for the 8-speed auto as its excellent by all accounts and the car will invariably get used for some long distance commuting, and also gone for standard suspension over M Sport given that these cars are only supplied on 18" RFT.
I just wondered what people thought of the F20 here and if anyone else is awaiting delivery of any of the new models in March? I thought I'd take advantage of the 4.9% APR deal that BMW are running.

125d M Sport
Sport Auto option
Standard suspension (deleted M Sport)
Valencia Orange
Black Leather
Xenons
Memory Seats
DAB / HK stereo
and a few other things, not bothered with nav as its a completely wasted option in our current cars
An expensive hatch by all means but should be a very good blend of fun and eco and by offloading a significant amount of mileage onto it from current cars it will cover a good proportion of its cost in fuel and maintenance savings. I'll probably sell the E65 as whilst it's been great for the last 30k miles it's just too big for my current commute (100 miles of windy A/B roads which are just not very waft friendly), on the other hand I may decide its worth keeping and running 3 cars for a while, we've done it in the past and for very car dependent people it's handy having some redundancy :-)
