Desirable entry-level BMW is superb dynamically and its 120d engine is a real cracker
One of the best all round cars in any class, the 3-series excels in almost every department
It's still an icon, but the V8 BMW M3 super-saloon is a long way from the hard-edged original
Sophisticated drop-top Z4 has a great engine range and eye-catching styling
The X1, BMW's new junior off-roader, could be the first small SUV that's actually fun to drive
Very accomplished, but it's not quite the revolution we were expecting
New X3 grows larger in size and it's much more rounded than its predecessor.
A favourite on the school run, the X5 is fantastically engineered and built inside and out
The 5-series GT may prove to be the answer to a question no one has yet asked
Perhaps the most hotly debated car available today, this SUV-coupe crossover is a real head turner
Not as desirable as a Porsche 911 but still offers so much power, grip and control. M6 is awesome
Spacious, refined and very well equipped, the 7-Series is one of the most stylish limos available

The 2002 Tii was an icon, mixing fine engineering with a stunning performance and handling
(66-73)
BMW's 1602L was its smallest offering at the time, but it still had all the expected class
(97-03)
The Z3 was a real achievement in open top motoring and a good premium MX-5 alternative
(00-03)
It was hard not to like the design of the Z8 but it was a forgettable driving experience
