    The seats are awesome I managed 1000 miles with ease and hardly moved when throwing it around corners. I can't wait for the JCW either :)

    The front overhang on the F56 is ridiculous.

    I passed one going the other way in my R53 and it felt like the bonnet was the height of my head.

    Still can't bring myself to appreciate it as a piece of design, looks to much like a countryman already

    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
