As for why there are so many used M-Sport cars in the lots, I ascribe to many of my fellow Americans, who can't fit between the wings of the sports seats even adjusted to the widest, and thinks the steering and suspension is too hard. Well, yes, a hard suspension goes with the "M-Sport". I wouldn't want it any other way. On the twisty hilly frost heaved roads here, I can easily do twice the speed of most other cars. If high speed highway cruising is what you want, get the X-line.

I had to rule out sport seat equipped X1 because I'm tall, and my neck is fused from C2-T2. It's very difficult to enter the driver's side with higher seat bolsters. Also, with standard runflats, I can't imagine the ride being even worse! My new wheel/tire combo should be on this week.
No more runflats.
