Bloody hell my 320 clocked 55000 the other day :-x :-x Damn, i hate mileage but i love driving it. It's on the wrong side of 50000, the downhill side, it's like hitting 30, it's all downhill from there :D :D :D

Had a GPS true speed of 108mph on the way to exeter, clocks showing 120mph :clap:

Has yours still got the offside rear cap on the bumper? Most of them fall off, design fault I think.....
