I think the understated look is the desirable thing about the car. Won't be many hatchbacks that can make 450BHP easily whislt looking like a run of the mill one series.
Granted. I just prefer my cars to actually look interesting, rather than have the aesthetics of a Korean bargain motor.

It's a good car but feels very heavy compared to the hatch
The steering is better than the hatch though - not sure how but it's has more feel and heavier
Ours was a 118d and to be honest it needs the 120 minimum
We got good discount on the convertible and to be honest I'm glad as its lost a ton of money so if the discounts hadn't been available I would be in a lot worse position
They still look good in design but interior feels dated compared to the new model

The discounts they give on cars are massive now - they should just have the price lower but that would affect the tax man as BIK is based on p11d value
Buying a new car is like buying from DFS - were retail price does not exist

Its just so people can feel they drive a £40k car instead of a £30k one
Like when someone tells you they have a £3k sofa (RRP)

You'll love it. The engine and gearbox are the best parts about it by far!
