BMW 2 Series 220D (F22) Is this the ultimate driving machine? (Test drive and review)

[@r.2696]

nice video man, just bought a 2015 218i m sport fully specced as I cannot get insured on a 220 as a young driver, and I am having a blast with this car. It has everything I need from acc to heated seats, full leather, nice and small, looks great with the kit i have added and it's all around amazing, bmw too. plenty of power with stage 1, 184bhp and 300nm torque for it's little 1380kg chassis, could not be more happy!! just hope no problems down the line :p

225d f22 224bhp 2017 currently 320000km with zero problems.! Oil change every 15000km🤩

[@robertopinna220]

Buying it next week in sparkling red. So excited 😆

[@stevengreenley1649]

I’ve found your review really helpful, although I chose the 420d M Sport x drive in black with white leather and Pro Nav. If you’d like to do a review I’d be more than happy to assist 😊

[@ricardoferreira2038]

Whats the top speed?

[@The-Benjamin-786]

Sick review bro enjoyed seeing the drive looks great , u have a nice way about you tone of voice and I learnt about this car more, I’m considering one around august God willing also you drove so fast past pedestrians bro 😅

[@hainguyen-xo4zq]

this car 2.0 or 3.0

[@besandcars]

Hope you bought one!

[@YourMasYourDa]

​@hainguyen-xo4zq 2.0. It's a 220D. First 2 stands for 2 series and the 20 is 2.0 litres. D is for diesel. So a 235d would be a 2 series 3.5l diesel 😂

I got 1. This review convinced me to buy 1. Thank you!

[@RimKWithoutTheK]

after 1 month, what do you think about it ?

After 1 year how do you think about it ?

@@gman3371 I love it. Just gotta be care when driving in Sports+😂

Thinking of getting one paid as much for my Ford Focus 🥺🙈 top review, covering all aspects of the car. How is the body-roll in sport / sport plus?

[@davewheatley3149]

I gave this a like after 2:50 just for the indicator dig.

[@rohanhammond2289]

Hi I found your review incredibly informative, thanks! How many times have you had to take it into repair, and what things have failed if any? Thanks in advance

[@besandcars]

Hello, according to the owner it has been a fairly reliable car, had a few issues with the starter motor but they believed this was due to the battery. They changed the battery their selves but did not realise it needed to be re-programmed to the car with some errors on the dash, this has since been sorted.

[@rohanhammond2289]

@@besandcars Thanks for the heads up! Thinking of getting a 220i myself (also a 2014 model).

[@Maurisje0123]

Good review. Do you have the adaptive chassis? I wonder if the non adaptable M chassis isn't too firm?

[@robertbidochon7949]

when you think about it, this engine is completely crazy: 100+hp and 200N.m / litre for a DIESEL😳and great economy !

[@P4FElton]

and the fact bmw did it in the old n47 like 13 years ago... (123d from 2007/2008)

[@robertbidochon7949]

@@P4FElton it's a bi turbo !

[@P4FElton]

@@robertbidochon7949 and the new b47 is what? naturally aspirated? 🤣😂

[@robertbidochon7949]

@@P4FElton the 20d are single turbo nice troll though

[@P4FElton]

​@@robertbidochon7949 n47 20d are also single turbo? either way both of them dont deliver 100+ per liter... only twin turbo ones... unless they get bigguer turbos... or a simply a remap would make them deliver that... tbh b47 stand out isnt even power or anything... is the fact bmw finally tried to solve timing chain issues that have been putting bmw reputation in the shit... literally any chain engine from any other brand is better than an n47... and isnt even about experience since the older m47 had no chain issues...

[@BasiaSaysRAWR]

Great video!

[@brandonlim9536]

Hi, great review. Can I just ask how much it was to retrofit the infotainment display? And where was it done?

[@besandcars]

I’m not 100% sure where it is from, I just know it’s an android unit.

[@brandonlim9536]

@@besandcars alright thanks for the info!

[@northerpwn]

I don’t know if somebody mentioned it but… wash the car before review! It helps a lot to your growth and professionality on YT :)

[@besandcars]

Great point, this was recorded when there were some covid restrictions in place so wasn’t able to have it washed before hand. But I should be posting some new content soon and will look at these improvements :)

[@ruariwilson9696]

Enjoyed your real life driving review. I have the 123d coupe and may consider upgrading to this model. Thank you.

[@ricardoferreira2038]

DO IT! DO IT NOW!

[@ruariwilson9696]

I bought a 225d coupe in June with a great spec - red leather, Alpine White. Loved driving it, however we were involved in a serious accident and the car has been written off - sadly. Just started to look for another one - my garage would prefer me to buy the 220i rather than the 220d - they say that the petrol engine is simpler to work on and less expensive. Do you have a view? All the best@@ricardoferreira2038

[@Garthydude12]

Great review thanks. 🙏Do you know the rough figures after the remap?

[@besandcars]

This BMW has had the EGR delete and produces around 235hp and 370ib/ft torque, this is on a stage one remap.

Wash the car before you review

I really should have to be fair! I only had the car for a few hours so I didn’t get the chance.

Pie-relli?! No. Just no.

Lol, that’s how we pronounce it where I’m from 😉
