Unfortunately, yes.
 
Bigger and heavier than the E46 and an automatic as well.
 
However, it is quite a different driving proposition, which more than makes up for it.
 
Welcome to the forum yourself BTW mpgscott
 
Won't be able to make the go-karts, but will be coming along to your April meeting (as long as it does not clash with Easter, anyone know when Easter is this year?).

Nice cars the E39 530i Sports.  I was on the hunt for one last summer.  Looks like it is loaded with toys too, nice.

We'll all help you out with any technical/oily bits/cleaning tips that you may have.  The guys on here are really helpful.

All the best

Andrew

Nothing as classy as that Stephen, I did check out the colour code once and it was labelled as slate green (pretty boring, eh??!! ;))


Nice to have you join us Adam.

March meet is at a curry house so I hope you like curries??

Morea Green is a nice colour just mine would be better not called that as looking out the window right now is looks more 'burnt oak green' lol

I am a big curry fan Tiko  
 
My only problem is that my wife does not like curries, so I rarely go out for a curry :(
 
As a result the March meet will kill two birds with one stone as far as I am concerned:
 
1.  I get stuff myself with Indian food;
2.  I can get to meet fellow Scottish BMW owners!
 
Cheers
 
Adam
