BMW 730d SE (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 5

Glen Waddington, 18 December 2008 15:01

Barely 25 years ago, Mercedes and Jaguar had this market – then the sub-Rolls market – sewn up. BMW was knocking on the door but only got its foot in with the second-gen 7-series of 1986. Audi came along with the A8 a few years later and today there are still only those four key players, with some upstart rivals ...

BMW 740i (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Richard Aucock, 28 July 2008 08:58

We've just been behind the wheel of BMW's new 7-series, at the company's Miramas test base. And while this 7-series might be a taped-up pre-production car, it's all but ready. So we've taken the unusual step of driving a car before its official launch to see if the promised tech fest is worth waiting for ahead of its November 2008 ...

BMW M3 Convertible M-DCT driven CAR review

Rated 3 out of 5

Chris Chilton, 01 May 2008 10:05

The BMW M3 Convertible is not a Footballers’ Wives kind of car. The convertible M3 might be heavier and bendier than the coupe but, along with that glorious V8, this  car also hasa surprise up its sleeve in the form of BMW’s new double-clutch semi-auto gearbox. Other M3s will be offered this transmission in time, but our first opportunity to try it ...

BMW 730Ld SE CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Glen Waddington, 13 March 2008 12:59

Big sports saloon or limo? Actually, the long-wheelbase BMW 7-series aims towards the genuine limo class. And it's huge. Huge enough to make you wonder if a 3.0-litre turbodiesel could ever be enough to shift you in VIP-style haste. So is the BMW 7-series a great limo to spend time in? From the driving seat you'll soon forget the 'L' ...

BMW 635d CAR review

Rated 4 out of 5

Anonymous, 30 October 2007 09:00

A 635d? Hmm, potentially an interesting combo… Indeed. Mating the excellent twin-turbo 3.0-litre diesel to BMW’s mildly-facelifted 6-Series Coupe and Cabriolet, creating (they say) the world’s first diesel GT 2+2, is something we’ve been anticipating with intrigue. The 282bhp unit has the same power as an ‘80s M 635 CSi, yet the 427lb ft of torque is over 10 percent ...

BMW M3 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 5

Anonymous, 12 July 2007 03:20

You’ve driven the new BMW M3 then? Oh yes. The E92 model is the fourth generation of the M3, a car that first arrived in 1986. Back then it had a four-cylinder engine with around 200bhp. The new car doubles that with a V8 and 414bhp, but the basic ingredients remain the same: rear-wheel drive, a limited slip differential and ...
