[....,,,,..,,..]

Well I had my first service on Monday, other than the un-courtesy car and washing the bloody car, everything went well.

When I picked the car up I thought it felt a bit responsive, put it down to just me.

However have put a few hundred miles on since Monday, it looks like I had a software update, as when I checked Idrive it said 'latest software installed' and not usual message.

Been up and down A5 and ithe throttle response is brilliant, I actually found myself checking it was in comfort and not sport at one point, however sport is even better, just breath on the pedal.

Let my wife drive the car last night and she noticed how lively (for a diesel) it felt.

Both throttle and gear changes seem more instantaneous and don't need as much movement on the pedal.

The A5 route was Tamworth to Bangor, so quite varied and couple M54, M6 toll blasts.
