Bit of an update. Car has been daily use over the lockdown - collecting and delivering food for the local Foodbank, where pre-Covid I used to go to for 2 hours every two weeks for a bit of a social. I now effectively work there every day at some point, doing admin, treasury and, as mentioned delivering or collecting food. The car has been an amazing load carrier - loading up once a week at the local Morrisons and delivering pre-packed food to people across the county. The car has been peerless swallowing many Kgs of food into it's cavernous interior. There was a safety recall on a potential auto brake issue. The car was collected, fixed and returned by the supplying dealers who are 45 miles away when they re-opened. Got a text from them the other day offering the "Polestar" upgrade for half the retail £760 cost. Took them up on it and it has made a significant difference to mid-range torque, something I missed from the massive amount of woosh the BMW provided......The beauty of is that it is selectable by driving mode. No insurance or warranty penalties, it has firmed up the car's performance....still miss that awesome BMW six cylinder and perfect gear box though ;-)
