For
The 3-series is the most sought-after small executive
saloon, based on its image and driving characteristics.
Strong residuals make it a sound buy. Our Compact
Executive of the Year in 2004.
Against
The rear seats are a bit of a squeeze for two adults and
the boot is not as big as some rivals'. Base models lack
some of the usual exec essentials.
For The new Five is everything the old car was – and more.
It has more space and equipment, and is still the best car
in this class to drive. Our Executive Car of the Year
2004.
Against
The looks are more controversial than its predecessor’s.
BMW's iDrive multi-control system won't appeal to
everyone.
For
Power, refinement, performance and high technology makes
the new 7-series a truly trans-continental luxury
flagship.
Against
Some think the looks are awkward, while the centralised
iDrive ancillary controls system is controversial and
potentially distracting on the move.
For
Wonderful drive thanks to a superb chassis
and sharp steering; diesel engines are punchy and petrols
are sweet-revving. Desirability should make the 1-series
an exceptional proposition.
Against
You’ll have to pay plenty for BMW’s premium image, and
equipment levels are mediocre on base models. Build
quality is not as good as expected
