Default Saying Goodbye

Final trip with my Roadster today - to the BMW dealership to trade it in . Need some more seats and doors I'm afraid so its got to go, being replaced by a 123D. I've enjoyed driving the XF - especially with the roof down (drives much better) and for all its quirks its been reliable and other than depreciation not too expensive to run, but it was do for a service, MOT, rear tyres etc and their offer was just about good enough (think lowish private sale) to tempt me. So I'm going from 1 car that does 0-60 in 6.8 and 150mph with 2 seats and no roof, that does 23mpg to a 5 seat, 5 door car with a roof and a boot(!) that does 0-60 in 7secs and 148mph but does 46mpg! That said the XF is a pretty car and the 1 series is one of the ugliest on the road but I can't see the outside when I'm driving it .
Thanks for all and any help I've received the last couple of years.
