Had my M3H for a month now after a '72 MLR.
Love the cooled seats & swipe to drive (much faster than the old 'gear shift'.
No issues with the lack of stalks for indicating - got used to the buttons pretty quickly.
But...
apart from slightly dodgy wheel balancing which needs to be sorted, I'm wondering if I have bigger issues with the steering.
I know the rack has been changed from earlier models (a slower turn rate?) but the 'null' / centre point on the motorway seems really wide. The car can meander around this centre point and when you need to do something about it, it's a much harder 'nudge' to get it back to centre which then means (if you're not careful) that you can overshoot a bit and start a 'driver induced oscillation' about the middle!
Never had this on a car before and it's really not a relaxing drive - especially is any sort of cross wind.
Anyone else had this?
