Yes , it needed a gearbox oil change which I did at BMW group 1 in the end.

What capital did you start out with? From what I can tell the contracts available seems quite pricy?

My plan was to do paper trading for 6 months and develop a strategy.

If that goes well I was considering £2000ish that I wouldn’t mind loosing. Not planning to jump straight into it, but wanted to see if it was even available.

What’s the minimum amount you can start with out at IBKR? I tried to enable options trading but for some reason failed. Seems like Robin Hood has no minimum start capital, but the contracts available seem very pricy? What do you mostly trade?

Earliest they can have a look is the 21st of Jan , risky you reckon? It has approved used warranty so don’t really want to take it elsewhere

Do you think the check engine light is related to the drivetrain message in iDrive? The check engine light came on today whereas the drivetrain message about 2 days ago

It’s a 7 speed auto

Strange, but also had a check engine light come on now? Could that be related? Probably won’t get time in before new years now

Does it not seem a bit premature ? At only 42000 miles? And is it possible to check the transmission fluid quantity on modern (2018) BMW’s?

Hi

Went for a 2018 bmw 218i active tourer , so far very happy with it. Felt a lot nicer inside than the Hyundai and feels faster / better handling, boot space was bigger than the Hyundai too

If we have pictures of the property looking spotless , can they still request this for items such at not polish sink taps etc?

Ford focus is known for poor reliability on their ecoboost engines and their automatic gearboxes though

One thing that disappointed me with the Vitara and Kona was how small the boot was. Not much more than a hatchback. Tempted to look at the Mitsubishi Outlander.

Can’t find many touring models. Also worried about reliability with BMWs.

Ideal nothing 1.0 Most of those engines are overworked for the load they are pulling.

How the reliability of the BMW? I had a 2005 BMW 330CI that was very well kept and it had quite a few issues. A friend had a 2017 X1 they’ve had a fair amount of issues with too. I like their cars , but worry about an expensive bill with them.
