Re: Z4
Manufacturers seem to now avoid flash Concept Cars, and see it as a way of soft-launching new models. Looking at recent history I suspect the real car won't be a million miles from this -some areas refined and less showy, like bumpers/spoilers, but in principle the same design.

Re: Cleaning & Protecting Side-blades
Thanks all. Will give them a good clean and the C4 a try to see if this helps.

I have tried a few methods to clean (lambswool wash mitt, microfibre, sponges, soft detailing brush, harder detailing brush with Valet pro citrus pre-wash and Zaino Z7 shampoo), and none a...

Due to redevelopment, a motorway junction actually 'appeared' 2km closer than the sat nav was showing, so I promptly ignored it and waited for the correct junction (which no longer existed!). That decision meant we wasted 40 minutes whilst we drove ...

GTS Gears
A couple of times I've been in Sports mode using the paddles and in first it changes gear almost immediately as I flick the paddle, but in second it doesn't immediately and then revs uncomfortably high (for a diesel) before changing.

21 inch wheels
21's and PASM here. After my last few cars all being hot hatches with big wheels and low profiles in comparison this feels super smooth, yet still compliant. I'm selective with when to use the PASM button, and think that's what makes this so usable. For example have it on the softest/standard settin...

Mini. Funky in and out, she loved it so that is what she got.SEs Mini, brilliant We're on our third Mini now, and the local dealer has been fantastic at all times.

Hud Option ordered
If you read the review for the previous version it says it's not available in the UK yet, so suspect the current version is the same.

Connect + Traffic reporting
Thanks but followed that and whilst it list all the traffic 'incidents', it doesn't seem to give an option to enable them to be displayed on the actual map.
