  • Mat’s had his hands on the M850i for 6 months now, but sadly he’s been told he has to hand it back! So after using it as his daily driver for so long, what’s he found it like to live with on a daily basis? Join Mat for his 6-month review to see what he liked, loved and disliked about the 8 Series!

    The reverse steering assist would actually be really useful for me. I have a VERY narrow entrance tunnel to the courtyard of my house. There is virtually no gap either side when driving through - to be able to allow the car to reverse out for me would be perfect. Turning around in the courtyard is really difficult. So many people have scraped their bumpers squeezing through - me included.

    Hey Matt, you really have to try all those features - the auto park is great and the reversing assistant invaluable when backing down a winding driveway on a dark night. My G20 330i M Sport has all those features you get on the 850i, including Laser headlights but at a fraction of the price. I believe that BMW don't trust Apple to open and lock their cars so the automatic walk up/walk away feature is good as you don't even need to touch a key. If you don't use indicators you get a vib through the steering wheel.

    Matt, awesome wrap up of your time with the 850i. I was quite close to getting one a couple of months ago but there were a couple of things that put me off. I was given the car for 2 days by the dealership and when I returned it I had an average of 9mpg. I may have ragged it a little. I have also have two little ones and the rear seats could not accomodate them and their booster seats so that was a big no no from the missus. I am keen to check out the m8, but alas neither of those two sticking points mentioned above will be alleviated. But bloody hell was it an intoxicating drive.

    My wife and I have been looking at houses lately, and we have a BMW with the backup assistance. It is really useful when backing out of 40 different driveways you are not familiar with. Only thing you have to remember is to stop before the end of the driveway, otherwise it will put you in the road turned the way you were when coming in, which is a doh-moment if you are on a dead-end.

    Thug Life reference showing Matt with signature glasses (and a paint palette) - you can tell he moves with the times. Funny and insightful at the same time. That's why I always like to watch him and sometimes imagine driving one of those cars. Although on a plus note it was Matt's review of the Audi A4 that led me to getting one - which I still own and love 2 years down the line!

      Yeah this and the 5 series, tbh I like all the sedan models and the M135i as well, but damn 8 series looks like a Shark, so beautiful and aggressive

  • @Wetsuitntie
    @Wetsuitntie 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I totally agree the 8 Series is an epic design (both coupe & convertible) - but I'd never choose it in black/black/black. (OK - you said it's dark blue, but it looks black on screen!) You said you like a bit of bling (eg the crystal gear knob). Well, so do I, but to me that means chrome/silver trims, attractive colours and eye-catching contrasts. (The diesel model in red you included looks much more appealing to me, for example.) All a subjective matter of tastes, of course. At least this car has a red interior; I'm surprised that wasn't black as well!
    PS: Loved the look on your face when you were enjoying the body-hugging adjustments to the driving seat. Got me smiling with that, Mat!
    PPS: I use the reversing assistant on my Z4 every day, as where I park it is tricky to get into and back out of. Horses for courses, to be sure, but I love that feature!
