No temp gauge.
Door handle pull too far forward to control door swing - for a couple of bucks they could have put a detent in the armrest. Steering a little light and lifeless but better than early electric attempts. Despite these few items, I'm very happy with the car overall.

What sort of range do you get as a practical matter? On my 528, the 15-gallon tank gives me 300 miles of city driving before I need to top up. I would think the 13.7 gallons in the 228 would be about the same. In a 235, of course, it woudl be a different story entirely.

People like having their doors automatically locked because they think (a) that deters carjackers, and (b) the locks keep the doors from flying open in an accident. I just don't think either of those things is true as a general rule. All the same, BMW's system of a double-pull to open a locked door is pretty silly, I agree. |

Everything else in the car is modern and sleek then you have this Atari inspired compass readout in the rear view mirror. I didn't see a way to code it out on the F22 code list but I may have overlooked it. |

Do you know the answer? I've never heard of that part and I've been inside a few doors!

Never mind....I just googled it. It's some kind of generational term of endearment tagged on to the end of the sentence, without a preceding comma for clarity. Any number of my English teachers are spinning in their graves!
