Is that because there is only 5 roads on the Island?
I think there are people on the forum who do that mileage on their driveway.

Mine is 30K miles in 16 months. All primitive problems have been fixed, thanks to the 4yr/50kmiles warranty. I am still annoyed with front brake squeak although service indicator says 6000 miles to go. D mode is no compared to any other car on the market. DS is good. Manual mode is in used 95% of the time.
Windown creaking noise when rolled up. It's a typical BMW.
