As one does with rental cars that also seem to have a higher top speed than a car that you own.

A great reason to never buy an ex rental car, or for that matter to let anyone drive your own car as often they don't treat it with respect.

ummm im pretty sure that a 118i does not have a higher top speed than my euro. the 118 is running around the 100kw mark while the euro is 147kw...

Us boys are around the 6'2" mark, the old man is around the 6' mark, and the girls are a fair bit shorter. lol.

CU2 is still a comfortable family car, but if I had my own family car, I would probably skip it though. I would say the boot is too small for family. I don't have to worry about that though.....

I'm not denying it, it would be, but we decided it was easier with the V6L
