Oh wow yes. That's a great mod.

Weird huh but the difference is 0.07 degrees not the 0.47 I thought on the posters stats.

Maybe something to do with weight of the suv... there is a KDS alignment stat too which also confirms it. The tolerance is 0.3 so it's not a problem if they are the same I guess

Just the sports dials on the idrive, I have BM3, so there is a slight difference.

That explains the extra power and torque. What's your thoughts on Bootmod3?

I was hoping to get it soon, but now need new drains installing ASAP.

Only installed on Thursday and done about 20 miles, car is now on another level performance wise, get a little burble now (only seem to get in when backing off in first gear).

I thought every BMW from ID6 onwards has sport dials or at least MSports?

There is an easier way than that. Click on the Microphone on your steering wheel and say Sport Display!

That is a good deal. Would never buy from Dick Lovett again since I bought my Z4M from them in Bristol and had to drive the car back to Leeds without road tax as they forgot to tax it.

If it wasn’t at such a punitive APR it would be even better... More than 100x the current BoE base rate.

Agree. A look around can easily get you under 5% but it does feel like the dealers are trying to rip people off on finance for used cars vs new.

Because a lot of people fall for it, and the dealers get a nice kickback from it.

Also much of Joe public don’t realise they could probably get a brand new one for the same monthlies, some people are just completely blinded by the (often incorrect) thinking that used cars are cheaper!
