A lot of folk would be quite nonplussed by £100k home audio systems because it did not fill the room like a nightclub ibiza house/acid session (or whatever it is called, sorry)... But stick on the LP "Blue" by Joni Mitchell (for instance) and she might tell you that was exactly how she heard it in the studio... Somebody like Neil Young might tell you that he wants you to hear his music as closely as possible to how he hears it... But how many folk truly get close to that listening to his music...? Heck, even our ability to hear will be different to Neil's, let alone reproducing the music authentically.. Maybe an analogy is looking at a painting... the colours you see will depend to some extent on whether our not you are looking at it in person, or in a photograph... and then the lighting... and even then, you will see it differently to the person next to you...

The HK in my 7 series whilst playing a CD was brilliant with excellent clarity for a car system but you lose so much when streaming.
Plus some people think heavy bass is a sign of a great sound system whereas I think it's awful, but all that really matters is what the listener/owner thinks.

I also find BT audio is poor, and battery draining, so you ideally need a cable… I could stream hi-res but my data allowance would get used quickly.. easier to download over wifi and store on the phone… I use Qobuz…

I saw the new m3 in the flesh. looked hideous and then this
I did think the new x5 was kind of hideous when I saw it first and thought I would never buy it but I ended up doing that. It drives great. Like an eager puppy ready to break loose compared to the F generation. Generally the G series is less pretty more garish but drives great. It's almost like BMW is messing with us ie real beauty isn't skin deep. How it looks is for other people how it drives is for yourself. |

A few on the forum seem to be suffering from similar... Sorry to hear that...

I've heard suggestions that BMW are now only building to order, and not allowing dealerships to reserve slots without a buyer. |

My brother in law got his on 3rd Sept: Audi A4 35TFSI Black Edition with Comfort and Sound packs in Daytona Grey It's quite a nice motor, I'm certainly impressed, he got a cancelled build slot so was able to choose the colour. I believe he could have got it slightly earlier if he didn't want to wait for the 71 plate. |

The 40TFSI will be really nice - I'm much more impressed with the 35 than I thought I would be as I've been used to more powerful motors |

I sold my wife's car through Wizzle to this dealer. They were great to deal with. They came and collected the car. They said that if I had approached them direct, it would have avoided Wizzle fees etc. May be no harm in asking them for a price. I highly recommend them. Money in my account before they drove the car away. https://www.bespokemotorworks.co.uk/used/cars/bmw |

Cheers all,
I'm going to give it a good clean this weekend and so that I can take photos and upload them onto the likes of Motorway and Wizzle.
