I love my BMW, I have a 118es. I bought it as an ex demo car so got a really good deal. Since buying it a year ago, I've only had one problem with it, the glove box became stuck so I took it back and they fixed it whilst I sat with a coffee.

I know they are expensive but honestly, it is so refreshing to get some good customer services without feeling like you are doing the shop a favour by being there.

The car itself is a delight, it's so comfortable to drive and really economical, I get almost 40mpg from it most of the time (that's particularly sensible driving) and at worse it's 38mpg.

Hubby has a deisel Corsa as he commutes 100miles a day, driving that is like being in a tank compared to the BMW.

The only thing that annoys me is whe the dashboard alarm goes off every time it's a bit nippy! I feel like saying ""I know it's cold, I've been up for two hours!!"

Anyway, take a test drive and you'll be smitten.
