Camping 101
Приєднався 20 сер 2021
I love camping and would take my family out as soon as the weather is good. We are tent campers but strongly thinking about a caravan. We do live a good staycation as well because we think that our little isle is beautiful.
In addition to our camping exploits, we are experimenting with camping with an electric car. This started in June 2022.

Hey, fellow BMW enthusiasts! 🚗 In this video, join me as I share my recent unexpected adventure on the motorway with my BMW i4. I experienced a flat tire, and let me tell you, it turned out to be a real test for BMW's customer service.
I'll walk you through the entire incident, from the initial frustration of a flat tire on the motorway to the impressive response from BMW. The way they handled the situation was nothing short of exceptional! 🌟
From the moment I called BMW Roadside Assistance, they took charge with efficiency and professionalism. The support staff guided me through the process and arranged for prompt roadside assistance. I was pleasantly surprised when they not only got me home safely but also provided a courtesy car while my BMW i4 was being fixed.
Join me for an inside look at the entire experience, as I share my thoughts on how BMW went above and beyond to make a potentially stressful situation remarkably smooth. If you're a BMW owner or just curious about their customer service, this video is a must-watch.

I have a 2023 i4 eDrive40 and my seat controls don't look anything like yours. Both of my front seats have electronic controls with lumbar support adjustments whereas yours look like mechanical levers. Do they have different seats in the UK versions?
I don't think so. I think it is because of the covid year we had. I waited about 9months for my car because of chip shortages so I think this is why.
I really enjoy listening to you talking. :) The vid was also great. Informative and useful - including the Costa vs Starbucks piece. 😂
Lol thank you for the feedback.
So no BMW Tyre Mobility Kit in the boot?
yes there is but completely useless with a blowout, which is what I later found out once BMW did their diagnosis. The tyre was cutting on the inside. Something to look out for if you have an i4.
That is what happens on any tyre if you don’t run them at the correct psi.
Loving your channel mate, it's really helpful in weighing up between getting a hybrid or full electric. Hopefully will be getting an i4 in a few months time. Think I'd save a lot of money per year if I switched due to doing loads of long journeys too for work like yourself. My main worry is not being able to find charging points but I'm coming from Leeds where I'd be home charging and then London where I reckon I could find somewhere to charge...fingers crossed. Without making this too long a post, I'm moving hopefully in a year or so (to Kent) and dont think it's worth installing a charging point at home. IYHO do you think it would drive me mad 3 pin charging this car each day and maybe giving it a boost before long journeys on a quick charge point before trips to London or is it not feasible? I don't go to London more than once every 2-3 weeks and usually just do local trips.
The 3-pin charger is slow (2kWh) so only really good for overnight and even then, it depends on how low the battery is. If you are using the car often, you will find this immensely frustrating. I'd say, get the 7kWh charger installed at home as it will save you a lot of time. You will always have a full battery in the morning. As it relates to long journeys, we are a long way away from where we were 2 years ago. There are so many chargers around. It all depends on where you are going. The only place I found that was problematic getting reliable chargers is anywhere on the route to Cornwall. Everywhere else I go, I am spoilt for choice. I regularly head up to Manchester from Kent with only one stop for charging. Remember though, once you have your route planned in the satnav, the car will automatically tell you where to stop and for how long. It will even warm up the battery ready for the charge. Most of the times, when the car tells me where the stop, it's only for about 10mins just to get a few more electrons to complete the journey. Finally, you will find that you can reliably get around 250miles per charge, in the winter. It's more like 300miles in the summer. Once you get to know the car, you will have a good feel for how far it will go, depending on your driving style. This will give you a lot of confidence. Hope this helps.
@@camping_101 thanks mate. Can I ask roughly how much it cost you to get the charger installed? The long and the short of it is my wife’s not happy with me spending more money given that we’re due to move out in a year lol 🙈 😂
@@joedanielphotography lol. I can imagine. I totally understand. The chargers vary in prices. You can get them as cheap as £400. Nothing fancy, just to deliver power as the car will regulate how much power it will take. Especially, if you are on Intelligent Octopus Tariff. An electrician will charge around £150 to £200 to install and you're done.
@@camping_101 thanks mate that’s really cheap. I thought we were talking a grand 👊🏼
Can I ask questions what fit for i4 is the led or laser or black shadow am confused for that thanks man because I have 2024 and I need to buy the light
Not sure I understand what you mean but, this is the G26 model so any lights and body kits you buy, make sure to mention this and you’d be on to a winner. Good luck. Let me know if you get it done as I’d like to also change my headlights. Couldn’t find a place to do it for me.
How's the i4 going? I'm still waiting for a delivery date
Absolutely amazing. Still doing well. Just booked in my first service. £341.
@@camping_101 With my i4(company car) we're paying an extra £25 per month which covers tyres and servicing :-)
@@ralphthebulldog5163 they said it can pay around £530 and it will cover this and the next service. Still thinking.
@@camping_101 I'll be glad to get shot of my GLC, £100 every two weeks on diesel, 540 tax 650 service, tyres 250 a pop 🙂
Basically came to this channel to see I4 content as I’m currently looking at leasing one, and tbh I’m staying and coming back here as the content is too notch normal folk doing camping etc. love it
Because of you I added the visibility pack £1570 extra 🤗
I know it’s expensive but you won’t regret it. 😂
You won’t regret it. Makes a lot of difference. I thought it would have been part of a more expensive pack though. Well done for getting it at that price.
The lower back support on the seats are an optional addition tho
I definitely know what I’m doing next time I order 👍🏾
It seems to be one of the few EV available in 2024 that does not leave much to be desired from future 2025/26 models.
It is indeed. I'd get this car again but would be more clever about the options. I really need better seats and lights.
Could I ask what you pay for insurance please.
It was around £600 last year
Hi, how much did it cost you? Cornwall and back?
I remember it being quite expensive because I forgot my slow charger. But just for the travel there and back with a couple of stops, it was around £40 I think.
Saying that, £40 return trip to Cornwall from Kent is pretty good isn’t it?
@@joedanielphotography Yes it wasn't bad at all. I've got another camping trip coming up to the Isle of Wight. The longest drive will be to Portsmouth, towing the trailer. Let's see how it goes.
If you had to choose again, would you order the same again? I'm about to order the g26 i4 eDrive40 M Sport? company car
I would but I’d tick a few more boxes to get better seats and adaptive lights. Everything else I’d keep the same.
Trini to de bone 👊
lol yeah
Thanks for your vids! But what on earth happend to your tires? Did they crack? I mean even if they are worn they shouldn't seperate? Did BMW comment on that? Keep safe and always use the warning triangle if getting stuck on the road side :)
Yeah the tyre did split. I totally forgot about that triangle you know. In the heat of the moment I guess. Anyway, thanks for the feedback.
Really like your videos 😊 my company car is up for renewal soon and I’m looking at the i4 so have enjoyed your content 🎉
Amazing. Still loving mine
Hi. Loving your videos. The BP Pulse charger had barriers around because it was obviously out of order. I’m glad you managed to get them to fix it though 😊
Can I ask you I picked up my i4 today and when I collected it dropped windows on open and auto closed with door . I feel I’ve pressed something cause now it’s stopped doing this . I kinda liked it and do want the drop to save space when getting in and out . Please help 🙏🏼
This is linked to the key. Go into your settings and windows...and you can set if you want the windows to come down when you unlock/open the car. Hope this helps.
Great video. I’m in the states and am about to purchase a used 1 owner i4 with the same M performance features as yours. Thanks for the vid.
Looking at getting an i4 BMW are terrible for additional extras - want an air freshener holder £1000, I'm awaiting them charging for the steering wheel.
lol first point u give, the seats that u dont like. and u show the most cheap and crappy seats that arent even fully leather with the electric adjusting. then u cry about lighting and u have once again the crappiest non-adaptive headlights. im only 2 minutes into this video and im done :D
Re: Your complaint about tires on ice: Any sporty tire is not going to be good on ice. Sports tires are made up of a harder composite of rubber and when it gets cold they become rigid and won't grab the ice. Winter tires are made of a softer type of rubber, and also have much better siping (the thin lines cut into the rubber). This allows the tire to deform better and grip the surface. Due to soft rubber, winter tires will also wear out faster if you leave them on after the ice/snow clears.
I had a crash on the M2. Didn't record the 10 secs before/after. Other than that really happy with this car (i4 M50), cheap to run fast, reliable, well built, and the interior is so much nicer than Tesla imo. Thanks for posting
I commented yesterday about summer tyres. It's worth noting that summer tyres can indeed split in winter conditions, so it's something to be mindful of. Have you found yourself going through tyres more frequently with an electric vehicle (EV), or is that just an internet myth? Thanks.
Indeed. From this video, I was only on 20k miles when I was approaching the legal limit on the rear tyres. I think I still had another 5k miles before needing to change them. In any case though, I've never had to change tyres after 25k miles so this might not be a myth; or maybe it's down to the type of tyres bought.
Hello mate, honestly one of the best reviews I’ve seen on this car. Just open and honest about your personal experience which is great to hear. I get my i4 40 msport pro/tech pack on the new 24 plate in a few weeks time, can’t wait! I took this car for a test drive and I can honestly say I’ve never driven anything quite like it, but totally different experience from any car I’ve ever driven, and as you mentioned, just a comfortable drive. thank you for this video. It is giving me even more confidence that I’ve made the right choice. 👍🏼🫡
This is a significant problem along with all the other problems that come with EV's. I had planned to buy a Taycan until I questioned the tyres and discovered that you can't purchase all-season tyres for 21-inch wheels. I would have to pay an extra £5000 to buy winter wheels, so I decided against the purchase. I wonder how many individuals are driving heavy EVs on the road, like your good self, unaware of the risks they face with summer tyres in winter conditions. Not everyone possesses this knowledge, and this information should be conveyed to consumers before making a purchase. While it's technically legal, just like smoking, it's not recommended for several reasons: Performance: Temperature: Summer tyres harden and lose grip below 7°C, impacting braking, handling, and cornering, especially in cold, wet, or icy conditions. Tread: Summer tyres have shallower treads and fewer sipes, which are essential for gripping snow and slush. Safety: Increased stopping distances: Braking distances can significantly increase on cold, wet, or icy roads, leading to accidents. Reduced control: Loss of grip can make it difficult to maintain control of the vehicle, especially during maneuvers or emergencies.
Totally agree. I’ve recently had to change my tyres (all 4) but struggled to get all-season tyres. Instead, BMW recommend star rated tyres.
To note, driving with summer tyres in the winter is illegal in many countries, and for good reason.
My wife experienced a 360-degree spin in her E-Class on the motorway due to summer tyres. Thankfully, nobody got hurt. She always moaned about the back end coming out when driving. Initially, we attributed it to the car's rear-wheel-drive nature, as advised by others. However, recent research related to the Taycan revealed that the car has summer tyres. It's alarming to think about how many people have been wrongly accused or blamed due to the use of summer tyres. They rarely get checked or blamed; it's always attributed to the road and weather conditions. This is because they can't blame something that's legal. Anyways, drive safe, and I wish you well.@@camping_101
@@pjroberts2010 many thanks and sorry about what happened to your missus. Glad no one got hurt.

I would do this using the app for the charger. I won’t use the car’s charging system for this. That’s how I do my charging.
Im hearing the trini accent. 🇹🇹
I have had an i4 for 1 year, have drove it 20k miles, and can confidently say that you are trippin. This car is beatiful, have no complaint whatsoever. The only part I can agree with you on, on the tires. They come with some shitty tires. I replaced them with the fire hawk Indy 500’s and they are a dream. Great for going fast.
lol I’ve just replaced mine with the Pirelli P Zeros. They are good but I haven’t properly tested them as yet.
High beams man
Great honest review, many thanks. I'm looking to buy one soon. Personally, I think they look stunning, especially for an EV. My main concern was depreciation. I noticed a one-year-old model selling for £50k with hardly any miles. To buy new locally, they're asking for £80k (full specs), so that's a shocking £30k depreciation in just one year.
Yeah I have noticed that. Not worried though as I’m actually thinking of keeping the car. I really like it
Exactly, I just had that discussion with my wife. If you enjoy it and it makes you happy, that's the main thing. Although I might opt to buy a '22 plate, as it would save me more than the 25% corporation tax and the reduced rate of 18%. I just need to test drive a Porsche Taycan first, and then I'll make my decision. Anyway, wish you well, and please continue with the videos; they're a great help. All the best.

Very personal. I actually had all different seats in BMWs. But I love the sensatec ones. I also traveled more than 1000 km seats. But I prefer these above the real leather ones. It also is not as hot in summer. Less sweatty
😂
no room in the rear seats
For us short people, it’s ok but won’t be for taller people.
Nice review. Thank you. Personally, I thought the 40i was a bit lethargic as it is a heavy car so I’m thinking about the 50i. Could this perhaps be on your radar as your next vehicle as some of the options on the 40 are standard on the 50. Looking forward to your feedback. Cheers. 👍😎🇦🇺
The 40i is quite fast to be honest. It’s faster than even the M140i that I once owned. Actually, I know I said I won’t but…..I’m actually thinking about the i5. It offers all the space and specs. The cost is a bit much though so I’ll check the used market next year.
@@camping_101 Agreed on the space, just not the looks of the i5. Correction on the “slower” i4 I previously tested as is was the 35i, not the 40i. However, to get what comes as standard on the 50i, you’re nearly paying the same upgrading the 40i. At least here in Melbourne Australia. Just the reduced range is the only negative I can see with the 50i. My younger brothers have Tesla 3 performance models so I am wanting something that doesn’t look like a taxi. Have you had a chance to test the Kia EV6 GT? As I’m not sure if it’s just for Australians as the suspension has been tuned for our roads with its adaptive suspension and steering.
Hi, thank you for a video! What is a name of a colour of this i4?
It’s called Portimao Blue
I bought a panamera site unseen and it had no lumber here is what I did as hated the car seats until I did this for my back. ua-cam.com/video/ehY0PjLh-fY/v-deo.htmlsi=ytpBXOPnhjmm6Ur2

Yeah man, what an amazing car. Did you go for the 19 inch wheels or the 20 inch? It will affect range but I'm guessing you don't care about that. 😂

Not really. I like the Apple Maps. Waze is great too.
Merci pour cette pertinente, différente et agréable vidéo sur ta belle bmw i4. Tes impressions sur la voiture sont intéressante a écouter et je te souhaite de trouver une solution pour ton dos car en effet, sans support lombaire, les sièges des bmw sont inconfortable selon mes expériences aussi.

Many thanks for your kind words. For now, I’m using the pillow so that’s working well.
You should have fitted a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2’s - they would have sorted your winter driving issues (RWD) out too. They are great tyres - I have them on two of my cars.
Hey C101, great vid. Surprised you didn’t put winter tyres on… I’ve just put Michelin Cross Climate 2 on mine, after wearing out my rears after 10k miles. I don’t think I’ll keep them on permanently, but they’ll do for winter. It’s a beasty in the snow. One thing I never thought about was BMW recovery. I just kept my green flag going from the previous car I had. Is BMW recovery standard then? I must admit, I never read the paperwork with my i4.
I was tempted to get the winter tyres but can’t afford to be changing tyres twice a year. BMW recovery is the best. Used them a couple of time over the years. They just take the hassle out of everything. No subscription needed. I just call them and they fix it all.
@@camping_101 it only costs me £50 for each swap. One in Nov, one in March. Also, try Black circles for the tyres next time. Way cheaper than BMW.
@@camping_101 You don’t need to swap Cross Climates - they run fine - winter or summer - that’s the point of them. One tyre that does it all - hence the name, ‘Cross Climate’.
Will know that for next time. Let's see how these Pirelli tyres do@@richardsmith273
@@Nick_Smith1970 hey good shout. I haven’t heard much about black circles. I’ll look into them
I had the Same issue a couple of weeks back on the A299 Thanet Way. Bmw actually called me before I had chance to call them. Technician came out and plugged the tyre so I could continue and then took it to a tyre fitters who carried out a full repair. Agree that run flats are convenient and would allow you to continue your journey or at least get off the motorway.
