Hi all Sorry I've not been about for a a while! I thought I'd update on the W Reg 728i you all convinced me to buy in January this year. I've done about 4k miles and thought I'd give some feedback for those thinking of buying! I do mainly round town but some motorways and am getting about 24mpg around the suburbs and 33mpg on a decent run. Fuel costs are therefore not even 20% more than my modern diesel Saab, whichI thought was amazing. I have got 500miles out of £100 of fuel in the BMW. The sport setting gets rid of fuel quickly but it's a lot of fun and a very good way to get out of trouble. I've had an oil service and nothing else, which cost about £80, including a thorough check over and the garage said I had a great car! The PAS reservoir appears to leak but takes 2 months before any problems show (car groans as it steers) and apparrently it's just some hoses that need sorting, although that could be a little tricky according to the garage. I've not changed the air filters yet, even though I meant to, I will do that soon. Anyone want to give me some tips on where to get them? I think it's an easy job but I still can't find a workshop manual for this car, sadly. One great feature is the moving seats, I don't know what it's called but the driver and passenger seats move and moblises the spine whilst I drive. It really does make a difference. AC is very cold, although does make a faint but funny sound so I'll get that looked at when I do the hoses above. other than that, it's so comfortable and so nice to drive. My only regret is not buying one sooner! And I am wondering about a 740.......!! I did see an 750 V12 which was beautiful but I bet that would just drive from one petrol station to another! Thanks for all your support guys! Hope we can do a meet somewhere near me sometime! Cheers Paul
