Ta Bimmer. Had a cruise today. From the inside, even from stone cold the engine sounds suprisingly smooth and unlike a diesel. Whilst cold / cool, the mpg was around 30 but once warm with the cruise set at 60mpg returned 39.2 which is not bad for such an early phase of breaking it in. Think the published figures may be possible once the car has settled in but as others have said seem a bit of a stretch at the moment. No complaints tho as the power is fantastic. You actually need to wear light shoes to keep within speed limits.
