Driving experience def at the heart of these.

Nice. What color did you get - is that the frozen pure grey ?

How much for insurance? I think this is the only option if I want to "downgrade" from my X5 30d -- all depends on the insurance band! I'm currently paying around 1200...

Sophistico Grey mate.

I did look at the Frozen paints but two issues....1 the silly price and 2 apparently if you scratch it then its a whole panel job. they cant just do the small area as it wont blend in...so iv been told.

If you go Frozen it’s a life of pain unless you get PPF, which cost nearly what the paint cost.

Very difficult to remove/hide any marks, and blend if repainted, hence the whole panel repaint. It also can’t be polished etc, and shows marks easily.
