Yeah - I borrowed one for a weekend for a test drive, like.  Ride and handling are very good.

End of May is the latest update for my new car!!!!!!!

Bentley Continental then is it?  whistle:

Not quite - a small BM.

One series?

Does it 'CLAIM' to have leather by any chance? rubschin:


It'd more than likely to be VINYL if so, albeit with a fancy name. ::)
. Be aware, 'cus it lasts 3 years before cracking up and splitting, and it's pure and utter shite.

BM are not alone in this latest industry scam/trick.

Oi!  cussing:

Update:

I've had a transcript of the email exchanges between the dealer and Ford progress. They are still saying that it's the Stop Start function that necessitated the recall. last message from them:

"The concern was not with the Start Stop Button but the Start Stop Function which is on all of the Eco-Boost B-Max vehicles.
When your vehicle is idling at a standstill, the engine automatically shuts down to save on fuel consumption. When you want to drive off, the engine immediately restarts."
 
Not what it says in the brochure.

Asked again for clarification.

Meanwhile, vehicle is still shown on tracking as 'compounded'
