Early Christmas present to me

Post by extrablatt » Wed Nov 23, 2016 7:16 pm

I've just bought this 35iS. Just waiting for the finance to come through and I can take it home next week.

It's an LCI model with everything I wanted (pro hi-fi, nav, heated seats & steering wheel) in mineral white with black Kansas extended leather. It even has Internet which is an option I would never have considered.

To say I'm excited is a massive understatement! :D

Thanks. I was patient and didn't want to settle for the basic audio I had on my 23. This one's a keeper.

We have it on our F30 335i and it gets so toasty that I can really only bear it for 5 minutes. However I had this on for the duration of the drive and it was pleasantly warm.

It was a feature made for convertibles...

Happy Christmas and welcome to the super heated Z4 club :D :rofl:

Never could quite figure out why on maximum settings its a good thing that the heated seats melt your jeans :?
