I think you misunderstand the kind of person the brand attracts

Hardly. I love BMW cars in terms of performance and other things. Never once thought ohh no I want heated seats, steering wheel or whatever. Just a nice car to drive. Yeh other cars are nice to drive but good luck finding rwd that's not a supercar.

Your statement would probably apply better to new Range Rovers though.

I was just taking the piss. I don't know anything about cars; I just take the train

Yh no worries, wish the train's in the UK were good. Can't beat them.
