M4 as daily car

Hello guys!

Just placed my order on sunday

SSII with SS Interior

Now I have to wait till September


Just wondering how many of you use your car as your daily runner?

Also how many miles are you/ will you be doing per annum?

Best regards!

Congratulations on the new car. Hope the wait isn't too painful!

My M4 is my daily driver. I picked it up in early March and have covered just over 2k so far.

Picked mine up in March and am right about 2500 miles right now. This will be my daily for at least 4 years, maybe longer.

What great taste you have mate inside and out!

Yes daily drive that bad boy for 15-25k miles a year. It's not a highly stressed or screaming engine so is built to last. Don't nanny it and drive it hard. Those are the rules period....

Well here goes my 1,000th post

I was thinking it would be pictures of my M4 SSII with SS interior but I can't last 'till week 36 so I thought replying to your similar order would be good enough.

Mine will be a daily driver for about 12,000 miles a year. I know i'm going to miss the economy of the 330d but I'm willing to sacrifice that for what I believe will be a fabulous car. I never expected to own one but I'm going to

drive mine daily, circa 6K per year. Not an ideal deal car for London, but it has enormous curb appeal and you feel the bollox in it. its also good fun when the time is right

I'd be interested to hear you thoughts and feelings on the car over this period.

How long did it take you to cover the 30k? Likes / Dislikes, running costs, etc

I'm just coming up to 11k which I've done in a little over 16 weeks, it's great as a daily in fact it is a daily driver just a quick one.
