This was my first time getting a lease car so I was very unsure of the process , thankfully Sarah was fantastic and helped me through it from my initial enquiry to the delivery of the car. She gave me advice , knowledge of the process and most importantly gave me time at the beginning to think if it’s the right thing to do , this was very important to me and was a bug factor in me going ahead with the purchase. Sarah is fantastic!

Somebody in Munich thought that the BMW iX just wasn’t… enough. The pure-electric SUV — a vehicle we really like — only has 523hp at its disposal, and that’s not a large enough number. Ok, it’s more powerful than an M3, but if an electric SUV is ever going to wear the famed ‘M’ badge, it needs to be faster, harder, and better than the regular everyday model.
BMW’s M Power engineers have managed to extract 619hp from the twin electric motors in the iX, turning it into the iX M60 in the process. Until the Lotus Eletre turns up, it’s the fastest electric SUV on sale.
But is it really worthy of that little M on the back, highlighted with blue, violet and red stripes?
