BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer

You won't find another premium, all-wheel-drive, seven-seat compact MPV like BMW's xDrive 2 Series Gran Tourer, but is there a reason for that?

From £56,3858
BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé

BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé

The luxurious and stylish BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé goes toe-to-toe with the fresh-faced Audi A5 Sportback, but is it enough to turn customers' heads towards Munich rather than Inglostadt?

The X5 uses in effect the same platform as the previous generation, but it's been substantially revised

From £46,2607

From £24,8008
BMW 3 Series Touring

BMW 3 Series Touring

From £43,8308
BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo

BMW 5 Series GT

The 5 Series Gran Turismo is an interesting concept, but the execution is flawed

From £37,2207

BMW Z4 2009-2016

The BMW Z4 is a fine-looking two-seat roadster with indifferent driving dynamics

From £28,8807
BMW X6
The BMW X6 has challenging looks but impressive dynamics. It is good value too

    First Drive
    25 July 2017
    Limited-edition road-legal Caterham track car is a superbly enthralling drive, with enough creature comforts to be used on the road as well. Even more addictive than most of its rangemates
