Interesting to hear your comments. I bought exactly the same model (and colour, and yes keeping black looking good is a lot of work, but worth it). I haven't experienced any of the issues you mention and am getting an average 46mpg at the moment. I took delivery back in July 2020 and had similar milage since then. There is a park assistant function on the car and a hill start assist on the brakes as well. I tend to leave the AC on auto all the time other than when I need AC Max so again never been an issue. Have to say the car has been a joy to drive for the past year and don't regret the purchase. Happy motoring. Cheers

Hello from Texas. I like that you did this follow up review. I have had my eye on either the 2 series or the 3 series. When it comes to keeping my car (2020 Jetta SEL) clean and polished, I'm a fanatic about it. I can't stand water spots on the body or the glass. I wash my car at least every two to three weeks. Will spend hours doing it. As to colors ... no black, red or white. One of my biggest gripes about a car is wind/road noise. That alone will cause me not to buy a car. I would like to know what you thing about your car in regards to wind/road noise at highway (motorway) speeds. Thank you.

Hi Danny, I just picked up a 2020 218i Gran Coupe M Sport today from a dealership here in Northern Ireland. Had changed from a 2018 Ford Focus which had a larger fuel tank and better economy getting 48.3 mpg on average over the past couple of years. It also has a bigger tank compared to the 218. With lower fuel economy and a smaller tank it quoted 300 miles till empty when I collected the car. I am so used to seeing the Focus say 500 on a full tank. The Focus also had a brake assist, a firm press of the pedal engaged the brakes so you could easily move off or hold it still. I need to be careful I dont expect the same with the BMW. Comments and feature list seem to refer to some sort of assist brake but it may just be the very short one of a couple of seconds. Must test this. Noticed tonight the car has no spare wheel. Googled it and apparently that is the case when the car has run flat tyres, problem is I am unsure if they are indeed run flat tyres since they are not the original tyres. Will haveto check them tomorrow. May have to order a spare wheel, just hope it can fit under the boot tray in the shallow compartment. One thing I did find cool at first, but will annoy my neighbours is the car makes a very LOUD beep which you lock or unlock it. Not sure how to disable it without going out and causing it to beep again whilst I get in it. I do landscape photography and sometimes leave the house at 0330am in the summer, cant have it waking everyone up in the street

I just bought an m sport today . It’s great to get a few hints and tips . I’m a little concerned re the auto assist parking . I’ve been driving a golf for three years and so used to it . I will have to retrain my habits .Thanks Danny ...

@@HonestReviewsofEverything cheers mate . Went to the dealer yesterday I was really impressed seeing the car on the flesh . I was told the waiting times was September . However there was a cancelled order due in next week and decided to bag it . It’s white that probably wouldn’t have been first choice but certainly not a deal breaker ..

my car just arrived and I was looking on the internet for other people's opinions...but... 1. you don't wipe the display properly... wipe with a cloth you electrify it, it attracts dust... look for wipes that don't make the screen attract dust 2. 42l as standard but you have the option for an increased capacity of 50l for 50€...mine has the 50l one 3. What the hell are you talking about? for like 20 years now BMW HVAC systems have been designed to leave the A/C in a continuous "ready" state and let the IHKA (integrated heating & cooling) computer control its output...the system is designed for you to set the temperature and leave it alone. It takes care of the rest. Do you mess with your home thermostat all the time? They found a really elegant solution to eliminate mold and mildew in their HVAC system but their only mistake was adding a button so that that English or Gender Studies major could turn the system off, then come back in 3 months complaining about his car smelling like a pair of dirty panties. They should have idiot-proofed the system by omitting any button. 🤣 4. mine is Skyscraper Grey, it doesn't get dirty like that 5. auto hold is standard on cars with steptronic transmission...

I have to agree with you on the no A/C button. I don’t know who mine turned off but my air wasn’t cooling down. I just turned it off and pressed auto again and it was back.

Hi Danny, I've had my 218i Gran Coupe M-Sport for just over a week now and love it, but agree that there are niggles. My top niggle is when I unlock the car with the fob and then touch the handle to open the door, I seem to trigger a button of some sort and the car then locks itself again before. I disabled the unlock as you approach feature as I just don't like it, and I thought it was set to only open via the key fob, clearly it isn't. My other gripe is with BMW, I think. Was pretty sure it should have come with the wireless phone charging facility but it doesn't, and as I got the auto box I was expecting the steering wheel manual gear shift paddles, but they are also missing. I think it has to do with the chip shortages affecting the car industry but I would have liked to had these features. Regardless of the niggles, I totally love this car and would recommend it to anybody. BTW I got mine in white.

@@HonestReviewsofEverything the passenger side mirror changes angle when reverse gear is engaged and the little button to switch mirror adjustment between left and right hand side is in the correct position (can't remember L or R). My gripe with this is the fact you cannot adjust the angle of the dip. It is set to default and I find it a bit too much. Our Golf MK7 (2013 plate) enabled me to adjust the angle of the dip manually to perfection, BMW missed a trick here.

Mine is automatic, it has auto hold by default, I rarely pull the handbrake button (and with auto when you select park, it is holding, of course). I also ordered it with the bigger tank, which easily gives me over 420 miles on a full tank (with mostly motorway driving). I am not absolutely sure, but I think the 'Auto' button on the climate control panel actually turns the air conditioning on and off, I haven't yet played with it much. I have a few other little niggles, though - you can't assign just any function to the soft function keys, they are not linked to Apple Car Play at all; there are occasions when Car Play apps get in conflict with the built-in apps, e.g. I had once my target uploaded to the car and when I started driving, I had both the built-in direction work, at the same time as the Waze app - they were actually talking at the same time... Also, I usually listen to music from a usb stick; on occasion the system decides to use one of the apps on the iPhone for this and I have to revert manually to the usb stick. The heads-up display is very useful in my view, but you can't see it with polarized sunglasses, so I will have to buy non-polarized ones... Other than that, after some 600 miles in 18 days I am pretty happy with the motor as well. The last bother for me was that I didn't want to go for the full parking assist, but I thought that at least the rear view camera was present by default - which turned out not to be the case (and after four years parking with a rear view camera on my Q60 it's a shame not to have one). But then, we ordered ours after a 10 minute look at a dealers - right on the spot...

Got mine 3 days ago - absolutely love it - Tank - you could have requested a larger tank so it’s not an issue. Why not set the handbrake to auto? I’ve mine set to auto handbrake so just stop & go The air conditioning can be left / should be left on at all times as it’s not linked to the old style fuel system it has its own system and then there is no need to set while driving etc. Use the normal heat / cold temperatures button.

Word of advice if you get into writing car reviews for any publications that rely on advertising from car dealerships - be careful not to slag a car off too harshly as it generally means the dealer will threaten to pull their advertising. A friend of mine found this out when he asked me for my thoughts on a Rover 75 that he was road testing for a review. As neither of us could say anything positive about the car, I said how about you describe it as a pipe and slippers type of vehicle.
