E66 730Ld with issues
Evening peep's, So I've gone and got a 730Ld and as per the title it's got issues, most prominently the lack of function from the O/S/R door handles, both internal and external. Does anyone know how to get into the rear doors without damaging the door cards? Cheers in advance Ginger Tom

M Sport Suspension
Is the m sport suspension lower than the se suspension or is it just stiffer? Just fitted the 19" to the rear and I have rubbing issues when going over bumps, I don't want to lower my car just want the suspension stiffer so it doesn't rub

Warranty Direct Good Or Bad Idea?
I would say save your money, put what you would pay per month for the warranty into a savings account then use that if/when you need to for any repairs that your car ay need

Unsure What 1 Series.
The 118 is the most economical of the lot and as Gav says, £30 for road tax, the 120 is £100 for the year, and the 123 about £120 iirc. The 118 and 120 are single variable vain turbos but the 123 is a bi-turbo setup.

Chippy I understand where your coming from and understand your reservations. The problems I have at the moment are I'm doing this in my spare time as I have a main day job to support myself while I'm getting things moving and I have to share the garage where I can work with my old man and as such am limited for space, I am currently having my own dedicated garage built which I won't have to share and can properly organise my tools. Believe me I don't take offence as I believe any critisism is constructive and as I have explained above I have started to get a place that I will have to myself and one which I can keep organised. Thanks for your comments
