Another G61 arrives …

Pretend Bryanc84 I have waited for a G61 forever to arrive. It is a lease agreement and there was some disagreement about the question of whether the agreed deal if it was ordered in February would be applied to the car if available in August, because it was not delivered in June when it was originally planned. Eventually the dealer took the hit to make it happen, so I finally got the delivery yesterday …

Unlike Bryan, mine has no extras – it is an absolutely standard i5 M60 touring in oxide gray interior, style 938 wheels and some gray ash finishing … No extras because it is a lease agreement and to be honestly bmws manier to pack them, I meant I had almost all the list of specification. To pay without everything! It replaces an Ipace SE 2021 that I had 3 years and 34000 miles and was not a little problems, but I never really trusted it only because of the JLR reputation -thing -and they have some well -known weaknesses …

Not many photos while I was working / went out / it was dark / you have seen them earlier … but one that shows the first you notice below, it’s big! The second is that it is a bit bling inside and I think I need a computer diploma to work with it instead of a driver’s license.

But obscure about that (the newest BMW dashboard will never be my thing, I prefer a little more traditional and like my Audis from 2017 and 2020!), It is a fantastic piece of kit. Amazingly refined and quiet, very comfortable, the 4 -wheel steering aids that maneuver, and it feels the refined long -distance cruiser it has been chosen. It is absolutely more efficient than the iPace – not difficult because they are notorously inefficient – and it can clearly pick up his skirt if necessary, but I will not really drive it that way …

I know EVs that everyone’s cup of tea is and that’s fine, they work for me and I love the way they drive. I will try to take some better photos and update the impressions, because I do more than drive around the M25! Must say that, unlike petrol cars, it was very efficient during rush hour – and everything just worked on how you would like.

So I think that for the time being I have the perfect garage for 2 cars for me – little and large, ice and EV, manual and automatic …. Small boot and solid boot, fold down the roof and a fixed roof.
