I tend to drive mine at weekends and then not very far. Hardly ever weekdays. Certainly not at this time of year. Maybe once every 6 weeks on average I'll have a longish journey (500 miles return).

Never had any problems.

I wouldn't expect any sensible car electrics design to have a problem with this driving pattern.

I only have 430 miles on and I bought the car on June 23rd. I traveled out of town a bit and I dont drive it at all on weekdays. When I took it to the dealers on Monday they coulnd't believe that I only have 430 miles on it. Ill drive it more asap.

When I had the problems with my 545i, they blamed quite a few things on me not driving more than 6000 miles/year. The radio dropouts during shifting (well documented here), for example, was one of the issues they said was "my fault" since I didn't drive the car enough.....
