BMW Z4 sDrive 35iS (2011) CAR review

BMW Z4 sDrive 35iS (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 06 April 2011 09:00

The current E89 BMW Z4 won’t spawn an M version. For some that will be a disappointment, but the rest of us are rejoicing because instead BMW’s M Division is readying a sub-M3, the 1-series M Coupe. That means the hottest Z4 is this, the sDrive 35iS, whose engine will power the 1-serie M Coupe, but actually costs £5290 more ...

BMW Z4 sDrive 23i (2009) CAR review

BMW's new twin-turbo sDrive35i Z4 has garnered all of the headlines so far, but how does the Z4 at the other end of the price spectrum deliver? BMW claims there are no current plans for a four-cylinder version of the new Z4, so for now this 204bhp 23i version is the entry-level roadster. Read on to find out if it's any good. Z4 sDrive23i? Looks ...

BMW Z4 sDrive35i (2009) CAR review

It says something that the first-generation BMW Z4 is already off-sale, yet it still looks ahead of its time, and is still fun to drive. The second-generation model, then, has quite an act to follow. CAR has just driven it, in twin turbo 35i trim – a 23i and 30i are also available – and we can report that it’s a very ...

BMW 335i M Sport Convertible long-term test review

BMW 335i Convertible long-term test – September This is the life: a sunny morning, an appointment in Milton Keynes some 60 miles away, and quiet A-roads ahead of me. The perfect opportunity to reflect on the 335i M Sport convertible, which today finishes its ten-month tour of duty on CAR. Drivers of the current E90/E92 range know the drill: the 3-series ...

BMW M3 Convertible M-DCT (2008) driven CAR review

BMW M3 Convertible M-DCT (2008) driven CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

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 120i SE Convertible (2008) driven CAR review

Remember when the BMW 3-series convertible had a fabric roof? It wasn’t always an upmarket folding tin-top. So a gap’s opened up beneath it. A gap that’s a perfect fit for a smart and decently engineered rag-top that’s just about big enough to squeeze your kids in the back. Enter the BMW 1-series Convertible. Hang on. £25k? Sounds a bit ...

BMW teased us with the 1-series concept back in 2002. Remember the CS1, a stubby two-door drop-top, with flame surfacing fanning the flames of controversy? The BMW firewall, roasted by a million e-mails calling for Chris Bangle’s head, certainly does. It’s perhaps no coincidence that BMW has taken six years – six years! – to put that iteration into production. ...

BMW 335i (2007) Convertible CAR review

That can’t be a coupe-cabrio! Where’s the huge backside, the stupid wedgy profile and enormously overlong windscreen? It certainly is a CC - BMW’s first ever in fact – although you’re right, it doesn’t look anywhere near as frumpy as a Peugeot 307 CC or Focus CC. How has BMW managed that? The steel top folds into three sections (two ...

BMW M6 Convertible (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 25 September 2006 00:01

What's this, an even more expensive BMW M6? It certainly is. At £86,400 the convertible costs nearly £5k more than the regular M6 coupe. Yes, it’s a premium price, but BMW has done the sums and knows there is a customer base, typically 45-year-old males doing rather well for themselves. The UK’s 2006 allocation of 80 cars has already sold ...

BMW Z4 M Roadster (2006) CAR review

So, Munich's TVR is back? That's right, but this one's a bit more sophisticated than the Z3-based version from the late 1990s. It's got the current M3's multi-award-winning straight six and no trace of the old M roadster's ancient semi-trailing arm rear suspension. Not much to look at, is it? It's certainly more discreet than the old M whose bulging ...
