Straight off the bat, this thing is fun not kind of on the edge of his seat broadcast Porsche Cayman kind of farm hi it’s finer than. We would love the idea of a sports call a racy to deal with a big engine and also performance a second offered a call perhaps that we use on

holidays and holidays the thing is for most of us not just not a realistic proposition most of us need to call they can carry people and stuff that’s what it’s not costing a fortune or

monthly PCP finance I’m 1 that is pretty cheap to run as well so what then if I could show you a call that the orthodox I’m even a little bit more this latest announcement is the new BMW 2 series coupe the 2 series took over from the 1 series could pay back in 2014 the

the name change was designed to separate it from the family hatchback despite the fact the shed many of its parts I’m platform underneath me for 2022 is the call you see here but unlike the current 1 series which was read on 3 or 4 years ago then you could pay teachers

because of the basic body, I don’t read it rather than from wheel drive. So in a break from the norm that’s my first thought what this call is like to drive and let me tell you straight off the bat this thing is fun what kind of on the edge of the seat broadcast Porsche Cayman kind of

farm hi it’s finer than. We love what that big a full series office as a package it’s got a similar dynamic drawing of a good range of engines but this space in the back and it’s called giant bugs as well I feel that the T. series offers everything that it’s the bigger brother

does but in a more compact and crucially cheaper package. There are dense plea 3 engines to choose from to petrol and diesel the entry-level model with the 220 only become the same engine the 230 on just with a little bit more power and performance then there’s the

MC 40 is only worth the 3 liters 6-cylinder turbo charge range-topper with 300 69 brake horsepower tackle of north 62 in a little over 4 seconds. And then there’s this the 220 D. diesel but don’t run off just yet this call is quicker than the 220 I. petrol and a whole load

more economical with 100 87 good cause problem 400 meters that’s what that’s 100 new to meet his mole. Actual building 162 less than 7 seconds. So it feels quick it’s definitely not the soundtrack of the M. 240 all right but if you want to make it different from the usual 3

series or tonight Mercedes A. class these with a lot of people looking at this kind of call will consider is definitely worth a look. Imagine a full service and sporty handling just now and that’s a good reason for that because this call is based on a shortened version of the

force platform it feels like I’m John it feels responsive steering has a nice weight to it and the driving position is behind all these loads of adjustment in it which means it should fit anybody who needs it. That’s something to be said for the extra talk of this diesel version

as well the ex-Beatle 20 cables is a pretty good job of being in the right care at the right time but a quick shift of this left-hand paddle knocks you down a coke and you put the throttle and you’ve instantly I’ve taken whatever it was that was holding you up the way it

It kind of picks up in the mid-range even more impressive the way it takes off from a standstill. Does writes about the only thing granted this one is on the smallest 18-inch wheels but hardly small few years ago 18 inches would’ve been considered massive so that

makes it to this diesel engine and strong or falling means that this is a call that you can get an in drawing for 300 miles and get out the other side things fresh at the moment you stop behind the wheel. That’s only helped by the 2 single specks on the strong kit list unless you

offer standalone MC 40 only this M. sport trim it’s your only option he gets everything from LED lights the parts how contar seats plus cruise control climate control all-round parking sensors, of course, this being a BMW there are lots of parks in options out or call has pulled

up in a plane for example plus a technology pack on the comfort part. If you want to know more you can find out everything you need to know a call but okay K. Quality, as you come to expect from modern BMWs, is fantastic it bills exactly as you’d expect it to be everything.

to a really high standard, one thing I would say is though this setup up hitting for time’s up doesn’t feel as cutting edge as the latest electric BMWs the only 4 on the only X., for example, has a reason for that this is one of the very earliest need to series capacities

which means he gets the older only drive set up here if you want one now you get a new one on July 8 and while we’ve got mixed feelings about what it looks slick the single panel the 2 screens merge into one that looks great on the tech that’s within it is

great as well but it’s just not as easy to use good thing though is that you will still get this click wheel down here on the center console on some models like the new 2 series active tourer D. without bond everything is buried within the screen one thing that will be buried

within the screen, light is the common the shows to get buttons on this one but in the new, on drive 8 it’s all within the screen and it’s just not as easy to use now did toy with the idea of presenting nice piece coming from box seats let’s be honest nobody wants to see how

undignified only look clambering into the back this is where the 2 series really separates itself from the fourth series if you want to carry people in the back then the big call is undoubtedly better even putting children in him requires a body of a contortionist Bessie this

is a bit of extra storage space then when you call everything you need in the states but I might actually be less often can you imagine but it’s a good size is 390 to cite any space for the trustee call by a suitcase there are many key paces on the market the offer this calling

to Vestal it’s an Audi TT for example it’s almost 100 leads to smolder not call you to get glossary screens to have to be really careful when you put in big and bulky items in the back if you risk smashing the screen when you close it but the BMW 2 series really decent space

around. You can fold the seats down should you really need to use the levers in the boot. We did touch on the benefits of running is delayed because of big miles I’m all the official figure of 60. one MPG sounds good we’ve seen even better than not on a long steady

run CO 2 emissions 122 grams comments although there’s no avoiding the fact without a plug-in or electric variants the 2 series with a very detailed to those looking to lower that company called tax bill. The 220 I will according to BMW the 44.1 MPG all the NC 40 I

should return around 10 MPG less first the official but not home by considering the performance on offer. Right she summarized recent deal makers and deal breakers. The 2 series feels like a proper many BMW fans drive in any situation it won’t fail to put a smile

on your face. The 229 on 220 D. should prove pretty cheap to run saying that without any electrical options the teachers are likely to be a greater interest private lies in company car drivers. It isn’t very big in sight for the big will swallow a big C. case with ease you can

always use the back seats 6 storage if you do need to carry passengers I would recommend taking a look at the 3 or 4 series your friends will thank you for not shoe horn

them free those front doors. The 220 D. is as economical as the M. 240 it’s a rocket ship but

the 2 series doesn’t get the same breath engine options as other calls in the BMW range. All in the 2 series feels like a really capable all-rounder it feels more special

then the 3 series and if you need those occasional receipts all the big but don’t want to sacrifice driver appeal then it definitely trumps the style-focused Audi TT or even the driver comes first Porsche Cayman. What is the item one a watch our view of the Audi TT or all sports because playlist thanks for watching?
