i miss my 135i!!

About two weeks ago, the cluster on my 135i had some sort of electrical short, where my odometer and everything would just shut off on me, including the radio which was the only unit that would turn back on every now and then. I bought it to my local dealership immediately and was given an appointment a week away so i had to leave the car parked in my driveway for the time being.
WEEK ONE WITHOUT IT.
When I finally bought my 135 in for the maintenance and cluster replacement, to make matters worst, they offered me a loaner car 328i for the time being...problem was it had no fuel in it at all, like the "Estimated miles left to go on the gas tank" light stated that i could go about "--- miles" on my tank. Their reasoning for not having a car with at least a quarter of a tank in it was that no one could go out and fill it up.
I had expected the car to be finished in two days or so but it took them nearly 4 days before they called me to tell me that the car was done.
WEEK TWO WITHOUT IT.
Picked up my car from the service lane. Did a complete check-up on my car and I find a big paint chip ding on my driver side door. I told the service manager who asked me to bring it back on monday so they can fix it.
for future purposes: WEEK THREE WIITHOUT IT.

think of it this way less mileage on your car and more on a loaner.
