BMW 320d ES

[FortJefferson]

My wife is considering one of these as a company car, but has read that a few people get a "numb bum" because of the seats. Anyone like to comment? Thanks John.

I'm afraid that this isn't exactly answering your question but I specced my 320D ES with the optional sports seats and HK speakers rather than the usual leather. I drive all across Europe in it and have done 50k miles in 2 years without any comfort problems despite single trips of over 500 miles in one sitting. May be worth considering if the standard chairs don't appeal?

Great handling car too.

We've had a 53 plate for 40k miles (not in 1 journey of course) and no problems.

Most ladies carry, err, 'extra padding' in the comfort regions anyway don't they?
