Mine has 3k miles and you need a feather light touch on the brakes at speeds under 30mph or you stop dead.

Never ever had such over-servoed brakes  - way sharper than even Porsches. Annoying in a car that ticks every other box.

Welcome to the Forum

So you have a heavy right foot !! Better hide your licence 🤣

In the mid 1970's I had a Citroen DS23 Pallas as a company car, it was a 4 speed manual (now the fun bit) on the right accelerator, in the middle a rubber button bit bigger than half a tennis ball, on the left another peddle. So 4 speed manual without a clutch put it in gear and accelerate, lift off change gear all straight forward until you put your foot on the left peddle that your brain says is a clutch peddle !!! Wrong it's the parking brake, scared the pants of me and a few followers with that. Then there was the rubber button, just think about putting your foot on it and you stopped actually putting your foot on it = Emergency style stop. The point is within an hour of driving it I had adjusted.

The brakes will bed in and you will adjust to them

ENJOY your BEEMER
