Which would be bad treatment if it's same as the BMW dealers I went into  :confused:

Same here, got treated like dirt when i said i wanted a mini but didnt want to spend £20k+

She actually came over and took me seriously when she saw me go to my R32, i told her where to go!

Hmm - strange test to say the least, I guess they just picked the most expensive of each in class as the "halo' model??

BMW's are fine in winter, everyone else in Europe seems to get on ok, it's only the UK that grinds to a halt with a few flakes of snow. But then they all use winter tyres on steels, whilst we're spazzing around on low profile summer tyres....

Is DKG another name for DCT?

....I think it's probably the German language term.

Yep, a strange comparison. My previous car was a 2-seater BMW and really an earlier ancestor of this 135i and I changed it for the Golf. Not for reasons of performance but for simply both passenger and load accommodation. Personally I'd choose the BMW over a Rocco.

DKG is DoppelKupplungGetriebe I believe (dual clutch gearbox)
