Not our first BMW though, we currently also run a 130i Limited Edition and have previously had a 123d and Z4. We don't do a huge mileage so the additional cost of the equivalent diesel would have been a waste of money.
Well - picked it up yesterday and very pleased we are too! Once I got it home, I was surprised to find a number of nice little 'touches' that I hadn't expected eg. The brolly holder (complete with 'free' BMW brolley), the opening rear window and the way the load cover goes back and the cooled cup holder in the arm rest.

I'll miss the 'poke' of the Cooper S though
