The Old Girl Done Good!
As above... Did Welwyn Garden City and back today - distance of 656 miles total. Car never missed a beat. Drove reasonably sensible but it still got full boost at 1.5bar a few times. BMW335's don't keep up...Can anyone guess the mpg???!!! Did journey down with brekky at Maccy D's in just over 5 1/2 hours and back with no stops, in just over 5 hours.

Well this one may be coming up for sale as I'm going to need something more practical for the miles I'll be doing....! Probably thinking S60 D5.
