I´ve just posted a message, as the test reports around show pretty disappointing figures compared with BMWs own suggestions..., as well as some quite negative comments around gearbox in general...
Thanks!

Hi!

Thanks for the comments!

I have been very happy with the car. Haven't been any major issues. Right now I have been hearing some resonance noises from the back of the car, trunk lining perhaps.

I think the acceleration is very impressive compared to the weight of the car as well as the consumption. The auto gear box is ok. I have never been a fan of auto boxes but it really is the only reasonable option for this kind of a car.
