They are definitely cars you can own and drive.

I love everything about it (except maybe the red seats). But sadly I could never justify the expense for the miles I do.

Oh, it's the other way round for me. The mpg wouldn't be much of an issue! I now drive less than 2000 miles a year, so it's getting harder for me to justify even owning a car, let alone spending £20k+. I might as well get taxis everywhere.

I probably spent more on servicing than fuel last year.

the colour was one of the primary features for me, you dont get many of them in it and it looks great when i can be bothered to clean it

Absolutely stunning car :wub: Even not doing loads of miles I think I’d struggle to justify the running costs, I imagine servicing alone would be a fair whack!

Lucky for you I’ve paid for the major service and you are sound for another 50k on that, just put fluids and filters in now, same as any car ;)

Does anyone bother with a Faraday box for their keys? My wife was considering getting us one.

Yeah, I have one on my bedside table. I mean, it’s just a little box to keep my keys and wallet in at night. Don’t see why you wouldn’t.

The only downside is I have an AirTag on my keys and if they’re in there it thinks I’ve lost them.

My car has remote tracking through the app so it’s not like anyone would realistically get any more than a joyride out of a relay clone, but no reason to leave that door open.

I don’t. My BMW key fob has a motion sensor which turns off all RF signals after a short period, perhaps yours does too.
