The engine compartment is cramped and you'll notice how much heat the engine gives off when you drive the car in the summer and get stuck in traffic - heat soak into the cabin footwells is cured by using the A/C and without it on, you soon realise just how warm BMW V8s run.
Simon, do you know if there is any heat insulation material on the transmission tunnel upholstry or under the carpet on the front bulkhead?
I put Dynamat inside the Roadster, which also doesn't lack heat soak and has NO A/C, and it made a big difference to "leg comfort last summer.
If the Plus 8 is free of any heat/sound insulation I may be repeating the exercise.....!!
