There’s a wide selection of BMW cars available for everyone from family to sports cars.

 

If you’re a busy city-worker then the BMW 1 Series could be the car for you. On it’s launch in 2004, the 1 Series was sold as a 5-door hatchback until 2007 when a 3-door was introduced.Smaller than a family car; the 1 Series replaced the BMW 3 SeriesCompact range as the neatest and most affordable car in the BMW range. The 1 Series possesses rear-wheel drive, a longitudinally mounted engine and 50:50 weight balance. Evidently, the rigorous engineering has payed off. The car seemingly glides over bumpy surfaces, demonstrating the effectiveness of the car’s advanced aluminium multilink suspension.

 

If it’s a roomier vehicle you’re after, the BMW 5 Series combines the finesse of a executive car with the sure safety features associated with a family car.

It’s responsible for over 50 per cent of BMW’s annual profits. The series has a selection of petrol and diesel engines. Unaware to many buyers, the 530d has pretty much the same performance as the 535i and costs the same amount, but it does 45mpg instead of 33mpg. Both car’s have sleek chassis which transcend time, styled by Marcello Gandini. In 2008, the luxury 5 Series was redesigned inside and out, it was fitted with a new 6-cylinder motor. This new and improved sixth generation of the 5 series has redefined the executive class.
