Congrats on the house and car.
I got a 335d Xdrive estate 14 months ago and do 1,000 miles a month in it. They are very quick and although it can be a bit boring, it does everything I wanted from a car. Know waht you mean about the spare space. Most of the time there is either just me or one other. Rarely 4, but do use the boot a lot.
I had a 630d before and it felt too large for the local country lanes near us and was no use at all with people in the back, hence the change.
By the way, you could by a huge house for that much in Shropshire and have several Porsches on the drive too! Mind you, the commute into London does take a lot longer. If I get the 7.14 train from the bottom of my garden (4 trains a day and a halt, which means you stick your hand out for it to stop!) I could be in London by 11.05, so by my desk in the city by midday.
