I hope there is some override option through the touchscreen. I have to park in a tight multi-story garage at home and parking is always a pain given that parking spaces were made 20+ years ago and the size of cars just keeps increasing.

I feel cars have become too complex and even an enthusiast doesn't want to spend time going through the manual for each small irritation. My car for some reason keeps locking the rear doors as soon as I step out of it, yet to figure out how to prevent this.

When I was picking up the car the rather old and experienced Finance Manager(probably worked in sales earlier and knew her BMWs) said the alloy wheels seem to be inspired from the BMW M cars wheels from the 1990s. I vaguely remembered seeing similar designs decades ago as a child.

I recently came across these wheels on a rare Canada only 1995 BMW M540i and they seem to be similar but with only two spokes per arm instead of three in mine.





I initially didn't like the wheels in the pictures but like the vehicle itself it looks better in person and it suits the car well.
