So here we go again, with the latest comments on less than ideal basic setups for the UK.

It is why I'm waiting for production F11 tourings to be on the road, then test the suspension setups. After being 'bitten' by the poor 3-series suspensions, I'm not getting caught again. I still think the core problem is hiding poor RFT behaviour, so everything is a poor compromise. E39 cars could do it all, and no real compromises. We seem to have gone backwards and BMW are scared to lose their key customers, due to tyres. But a poor suspension compromise does not win customers either, certainly not my money, and I'm supposedly a typical 5-series customer.
