BMW M3 Competition Package (2010) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 01 September 2010 11:15

The BMW M3 GTS might have been stealing all the headlines recently, but there’s another new M3 around too, the Competition Package-equipped Coupe. Introduced as an option as part of a recent mid-life update, it offers a performance-focussed pack for those who want their E92 M3 to feel a bit more CS, CSL and GTS. But while the Comp Pack ...

BMW 530d SE (2010) new CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 26 March 2010 12:27

As benchmarks for the new BMW 5-series saloon go, the last-generation E60 530d takes some beating – fast, refined, dynamically capable, comfortable and incredibly durable. And, despite early controversy, its ‘flame surfaced’ body still looks fresh these days. It must be quite an intimidating act to follow, then, not only for its competitors, but also for its successor: the F10-generation ...

BMW M3 Coupe Edition (2009) CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 12 August 2009 12:25

In the past we’ve had M3 Sport Evos, GTs and CSLs from BMW, all building on already brilliant foundations, all adding a little more petrolhead attitude. But with the E92 generation’s lightweight CSL project long since canned, the M3 Edition is as close as we’ve yet come to an even more desirable M3. What’s the difference between a regualr BMW ...

BMW 740i (2009) CAR review

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 saloon (2008) CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 22 April 2008 09:59

The BMW M3 saloon has two more doors, weighs 25kg extra, features blander taillights and, at £49,415, costs £1415 less than its E92 coupe sibling. Anyone with an internet connection can work that out. But, and here’s the key question, does the saloon feel different to drive? A small digression. I owned an M3 saloon once. In fact, for six ...

BMW M5 Touring (2007) CAR review

Ged Maxwell, 08 August 2007 11:22

An M5 with a massive boot - sounds win-win to me. It is, almost. The anomalous M5 Touring is M-division chalk to the M6 convertible's cheese. Both have the same 500bhp V10, yet that the M5 looks absolutely stunning and completely purposeful only serves to emphasise the M6's excesses. But the touring is not perfect, suffering from exactly the same ...

BMW M3 (2007) CAR review

Ben Barry, 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 ...

BMW M3 - E30, E36 and E46 driven CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 06 July 2007 09:56

The ultimate BMW M3 test: E30 Sport Evo v E36 Evo v E46 CSL M3. No confusion, just instant comprehension. The badge, the name, is universally understood. One letter and one number that combined are as globally recognisable as Schuey’s chin. BMW is launching a new one and can’t afford to get it wrong. Here are three reasons why: the ...

BMW 335d Coupe (2006) CAR review

3.5

Ben Oliver, 19 October 2006 09:40

286bhp, 427lb ft and 1570kgs – quite fast, presumably? Oh yes. BMW points out that the new 335d is the most powerful diesel engine it has sold in the UK and the most powerful six-pot diesel in the world. Crammed into a little 3-series - we tested the coupe, but you can order it in the saloon or touring - ...
