hi all just changed from 2.5 elite to 3.2 any major probs to look out for (besides petrol price ) razor

[dad1uk]

Hopefully not, but maybe more speeding tickets!

[Mr Skrunts]

More exspensive tyres if you play with the load pedal too much,

first time for an auto for me so just adapting to it and getting used to it is fun and expensive especially sport button

i remember the first time i drove an auto
i didn't where a seat belt and when the revs built up i hit the brake with my left foot as to press a clutch pedal and nearly hit the wind screen

Given time .... you'll be able to drive it with two feet  . One for the brake t'other for the throttle.

It's a bad habbit yo adopt.  I was taught the right foot id to stop or go, and the other is for changing gear if there is a clutch pedal.

"Two footing" takes some practice but soon becomes second nature - and very handy when your ISCV plays up..

[HCG]

Once driven ever smitten. Great around town and Motorways.

I've always been very against autos, nasty jurky things, with no 'proper' control.

Then one of my  friends pointed out that every auto I'd driven was an old small engined thing ie a 1.3 escort auto, a older renaut megan senic (that really was horrible!! :exclamation )

So I had a go in his BM 535i and I alson drove a merc and like em so when I was lookin for a mig I thought why not! I havnt regretted it yet!!!!!

The S on the button doesn't mean sport it stands for slurp
