    My headlining was actually ivory, but after adding the Black Pack 1, its defaulted too a dark headlining. The garage tried too change it as i wanted the light headlining, but they cant as its part of the Pack.

    I will be getting wheels, glass, and interior done as well- no point only doing the outside and not the inside Laughing

    I just treated myself too a heavy duty petrol power washer at Xmas, as the electric Karaccher is on its last legs. Thumbs Up

    If so I’m actually impressed that the body is dropped on its nose as there are no wheels. Bow down


    Made me smile! Not sure if it's my old iPad or the website,,,,

    A little under 4 weeks to go - getting very excited now!

    I am very pleased so far.

    The 2l Ingenium engine feels great and I haven't even tried sports mode yet,

    I am used to driving an Audi Quattro, so am familiar with BMW drivers staring with mouths open as a car navigates a treacherous stretch of road without issue - but this felt even better.
    Rolling with laughter

    One small annoyance - having been too impatient to read anything in the owners manual before I ventured into the snow Rolling Eyes - I couldn't work out how to switch on the rain sensing wipers, so I seemed to only be able to use the slowest intermittent setting which on occasion would wipe when I felt it was unnecessary. I have since read up and come across the "....if you have rain sensing option you select..." so I guess I need to check my HSE order spec.

    It's a shame the online/phone app manual could be made intelligent enough to use your model/order to give you a bespoke instructional experience. Maybe I should suggest it - I work in an industry that does exactly this kind of thing.

    Anyway - looks like we still have snow today, so I am going out to enjoy it --

    I may be a while

    Looks great mate.

    You selected the rain sensing wipers by the sound of it. First position up. They will only wipe when they felt necessary;)

    Adjust sensitivity using the rotating dial on the stalk.

    In the Settings menu for the car (via steering wheel buttons) you can turn them in and off and select winter park mode Thumbs Up

    Cheers Simon

    I guess the snow confused the sensor. Worked a treat today Thumbs Up
