[quote=""Turks""]Sounds lovely mate... E70 is definitely getting more attention from me recently. I'm pretty interested in the 4.0d engine and seeing the numbers that the likes of DMS can produce on a re-map.

It was the same with the E90/91/92 for a while i'm sure... someone will crack it soon.

There was talk about BMW offering a power upgrade themselves to these ECU's too. I wonder if that is still on the cards?

Update on the Service Inclusive - going for the plus variant, they want £1600 for this over 5 years - anyone managed to "haggle" this down - probably too late as i've long since done my deal :headbang:

*shameless bump*

Car is in dealer and being prepped - sorting out the finals this week and either (a) having it shipped up to me (b) go and collect on way back from Boston end of next week and take mrs for weekend in cotswolds before an easy drive back north
