I think it's new, but as you say only available if you spec magnetic ride. I guess that's why the saloon has 19s and mag ride as standard.

Just to underline things.......
Don't worry, if things keep going as they are we will have discussed everything there is to discuss and then the site dies as a forum and becomes nothing more than a little used FAQ. But that's what happens when you discuss things the longer term members have already discussed; they get angry and insist you don't, but rather look up an old thread. Kind of defeats the purpose of the forum as you have no idea where a thread is likely to go and if people think they will just be given a link, they stop using the site altogether to ask questions or go elsewhere. Hate to think what that approach does to SEO, but not my problem.
^ There's probably been a reply like that and I await a redirect link to that thread.
Yup, been discussed many times before, but you're not getting a re-direct link.
"tedious" is more accurate than "angry".
There is however a balance to be struck - stick to forum netiquette - read the FAQ's first, then do a search.
This particular site is extremely friendly/helpful - try a newbie obvious question on other sites, and you'll get a snarled reply of "Do a Search" (or worse) and that will be your lot!
(If everybody started a thread on "Do I use 95RON or 98RON" you end up with 22 threads on that very topic. Much harder for a newbie to find the relevant info when it's scattered everywhere. Oh. )

Why the constant re-direction to old threads?
Re-surfacing old threads is especially useful, because
(This is how a forum works )
Re-surfacing old threads is especially useful, because
- There is a great deal of knowledge in them
- The oldies that have been there before put a lot of time and effort in answering those questions
- Those oldies may not be around anymore
- Not all the newies know all the answers
- So the oldies knowledge is always captured in the FAQs
- Even the newies can learn from the oldies occasionally through those threads !

Not keen on the 19" option atall. would prefer if they offered the standard S3 alloys in 19's like the saloon.
Well said V8Why the constant re-direction to old threads?

And when newies add to the old threads, it re-surfaces them for yet more newies to take on board the info!
