Well I use mine  :) I have a great collection of audio books / BBC comedy shows from days of yore - Goon Shows, Dads Army etc. mostly sourced for 50p or so from charity shops and car boot sales........so I appreciate the hidden tape deck  :)) :))

You spoil the sound of a lovely V8 with that? :))

Just found my tape player by accident the other day  :o

You all have it wrong.

The tape deck is there for you to be able to listen to your fancy iPhones using a tape converter after your cd changer packs up and the Bluetooth won't connect and the satnav fails to load and so on and so on :)) :))

BMW, forward thinking :rofl:

Oh I don't know........I think the growl of a bi-turbo IL6 as it effortlessly overtakes you is likely to be pretty good too.... O:-) :)) :)) :))

Of course not, whilst you are stuck at the petrol station, filling up again, we overtake you very effortlessly  :P
