Their M5 V8 powered 3 series looks like a 3 series I could own too.

Er, doesn't my Pug fit all those criteria ? I have no idea what the turning-circle is. There's *masses* of space with the back-seats folded - hell, they just lift out of the car too (yes, really !), if you want even more space.
what one of these?

seems to be one door short of requirements.2: 0-100km/h 7.9 s, bet there is a 0-60mph somewhere that meets the7.5sec spec - if not an exhaust and chip should sort it.Fails on 3 - no hatch so no way you will get a shower door in it. Wellnot without bending the glass you won't, unless your boot/cabin parcelslot is way bigger than normal. And I doubt a bike will go in anywayround without disassembly.4: Can't find true frontal area, Cd 0.28, Assuming width x heightallowing 150mm ground clearance it's just a tad over 0.6, taking thetyre area into account will make it worse but it gets narrower at topso yes should be about 0.6m^2.Fails on 5 - 11.5m like just about everything else these days exceptthe MX5 (9.5m or have they fecked that up on the new model?).

I think I could come up with a coping strategy... :)

Ah, you want a hatchback then ?
The figures I have, range between 6.5s and 7.5s.
7.9s is conservative enough for me to tell you that it's wrong :) Anyway, 285Nm makes the ingear times rather nice - 0-100km/h is a rather meaningless indicator.Can't say I've tried either. But the boot is *large*. And as I said, the back seats simply lift out of the car if required.
Ah.

Part of Demon's news server has got constipation and held on to my first posting of this for about 3 days. Seems the onward transmission of messages depended on which server they connect me to.
