Too early to comment. Price is what will determine everything.
In the meantime, the new M5 couldn't brake away from me today and had to step aside for the old lady to pass. After that there was no point for more acceleration. !!
And I can say that after 4 batteries, one battery to starter cable (OEM), a starter, and one alternator I finally managed to track down the battery issue. The above photo of the vacuum pump for the locking mechanism must have been short circuiting and making the pump work periodically making the battery go dead after 2 weeks.
Used one in good condition fitted and 2 weeks on my battery and car starts fine and I hope this must have been the issue..
I'm also sending my spare steering wheel to Germany for a new leather and flat bottom transformation. 150 euros +17 for shipping. Same for just a new dressing with leather so why not?
Just a small update. The door pneumatic lock was also related to my battery drain in the end as I went down after a couple of weeks and the battery was dead again.
I then replaced the drivers side door lock and 3 weeks later the battery is ok. So I suggest those that do have odd battery drains that this should also be looked at.
