New (replacement) G29
As many of you will have seen, my original G29 had recurring issues with the SatNav ultimately resulting in BMW offering to replace the vehicle. I picked up the new one this morning from Sytner Coventry, returning the 220d Sport Convertible lent to me by BMW.
First impressions of the new car has served to highlight the issues with the original one. Previously, in addition to having a dud SatNav, many other iDrive features didn’t work either....such as apps and connected drive - all of which are fully functional now!
The whole experience has been frustrating at times it ultimately has resulted in being provides with a truly exceptional car from a great dealership who have handled this so well!
The G29 is an amazing car. Having had 2 e89s, this car is light years ahead and I am now able to realise just how good this car is, thanks to BMW and Sytners!!
Here she is....

Congratulations, finally, on getting the replacement car. They are really great, aren't they! I love mine and am so happy I swapped from my 35iS.
Try ' Hey BMW, I'm hot' and see what she does.

Yes, it's always reassuring to read of good service!
All too often people only ever comment on the bad experiences.
