Fairly comfortable over long distance - good a motor way cruising just got 410 miles out of it on trip to Wales and back. Feels like it lacks low end grunt, but that's probably what happens when your used to wodge of power once the turbo kicks in.
That's about £80 in fuel! for 410 miles

Tesla S £11 for 410 miles

That M2 looks super nice! Definitely my favourite in the current M line-up.

As per my first post, I wont be buying one in a hurry, but it's a very, very nice car

Comparing the price of the 325i being talked about and £410 of fuel, vs the price of the Tesla S, plus the measly £11 and see who is better off

How have you found the car to be in daily driving and running costs/reliability?
