Unbelievably, my car is a year old. Time flies. It's been an enjoyable time though. Covered 15000 miles of my 12000 pa PCP . Averaged 45.5mpg since new. Ceramic coating applied by detailer before delivery still looks great.
No faults other than the bonnet badge falling off. I bought the winter wheels and tyres from Alloywheelsdirect.co.uk. I wanted OEM wheels and they were delivered to my door ready to go. Excellent service. A few thoughts and pics; After having a 330dx, I specced my factory order 335dx exactly as I wanted it. Some the options; Innovation pack: HUD - love it but can take it or leave it. Fine as part of a pack but not worth the £800 odd as a stand-alone option. Driver aids - Have the obstacle detection on all the time but only used the lane guidance once or twice on the motorway. Online Entertainment - it's okay but not worth £160 pa in my opinion. Won't be renewing when it expires tomorrow. Speed limit display - mmm, it's wrong. A lot. For instance for almost the whole length of the A9 it tells me the limit is 50 as its picking up the lorry speed signs. Also frequently wrong in road works etc. Can't be trusted. Pro nav - well documented. Still the best factory sat nav I've come across. Wi-fi - not worth £11 per month. Wireless charging- works fine but neither of my phones support it. Adaptive LEDs - faster acting than the xenons I had on my pre-LCI 330. Not sure high beam throw is as far though. HK - sounds a little more resolved than my previous car. Might be my imagination but love it after the usual running in time. Heated seats and steering wheel - Adaptive suspension - interesting this one. Comfort setting is definitely firmer than on my previous car as is the sport setting. In an ideal world I'd probably prefer the comfort setting from my pre-LCI and the sport setting from this car. Haven't regretted not ticking any of the options that I didn't select. A few pics from delivery day and a few over the last year:

My bonnet badge has fallen off too, and my car is also about to have its 1st birthday
I havent got round to asking for a warranty repair of the badge, although its a fairly common complaint online - hoe have you got on? Cheers |

Doesn't the case use the lightning port though? I'd still want to plug it in to the USB port when playing music.

Not sure why the pictures aren't showing. They are on the Bimmerpost app for some reason.
