Good review but he states that you can only get the 20d in manual which is wrong.
Also yet another review of a car with variable damper control (VDC) where the reviewer says it's essential to get this option despite not trying the car without it (you can't switch it "off"). It's like every reviewer is given a car with VDC and a script telling them to say you must get VDC, and at the same time people who have ordered a car with VDC don't know how to check they actually have it, and aren't sure if they do. Odd. Agree on the stupidly big mobile phone holder! There is no need for it to take up as much space as it does.

Ah, good point. I think I'm just jealous that I didn't have chance to get the 30d . The price difference comes down when you factor that in

I like the tester in deep sea blue metallic like the 35i I just ordered.
sfax - your point well taken about VDC - I added the dynamic handling package which is the only way to get it (it might come with M as well in the US, but I didn't get that...) i really want that feature. a bit jealous of you all in the UK - if the 30d was available in the US I would have considered it. |

Anyone ever hear the song "Detatchable p#nis"?
It was about mobile phones in the mid nineties. A good laugh.
