Not, you’ll be unsurprised to hear, mine.
Mate’s full-on midlife crisis.
Go big or go home I guess.
I’ll be inviting myself to his some time in the new year to cadge a ride.
Although given his lead foot and the couple of near-misses I’ve had with him, that may be a decision I come to regret.

How many points on his license right now, and who wants to guess how many in 6 weeks time?

Lovely retro Austin Allegro steering wheel tribute as well.

I don’t believe I have ever seen "lovely " and “Austin Allegro” used in the same sentence before.

^Love the colour of that posh Fiat^
Just back from Kings Lynn with the new car - if you had to choose the nastiest weather in the worst traffic, and after dark, to do so, today would be a contender - but the bloomin’ thing is a joy to be in.
Feels much more ‘luxo-barge’ than I expected (no complaint) given the emphasis on how much of a ‘sporty’ drive BMWs are supposed to offer, and not least because this one turns out to have had more of the ‘M Sport’ options list ticked than I realised, including supension and 19" wheels - but despite all that it’s an extremely comfy, quiet car to be in, even on S.Lincs mudslimed, lumpy, potholed roads.
Nice, Very Pleased. Should be ideal for its intended use 
Forgot to get any pics, but will try and remedy that if anything like daylight ever happens…

That’s the best feeling.
Whatever it is being a significant outlay, and you’re not 100% sure, then after a while realising that you made the right decision

Surprising, they must have changed on the later cars. The ride on the last beemer I had with M Sport suspension, 19" rims and run-flats was harder than a priest on viagra.

80% of that is the shitty run-flats. They’re better these days, but still shit.

Yeah, there was a big improvement in ride quality and noise when I ditched them. 
Then again:
Tonight’s commute would have been better with run flats. Cockpunch to Herts CC for their shit roads.
