After having the car 3 months and passengers in the back, I can say babies are the only ones that can sit comfortably in the back.

tbh because my last car went bad and I needed a new one immediately and the dealer had this one available within their network.

I'm pretty happy with the spec though.

Does anyone who buys an M235i really care about MPG?

Me and my son's compare MPG all the time and the winner is the one who uses the most gas!

That person usually has the bigger grin on their face as well!
