BMW 2 Series review | Should you consider one?

[@MedOPS8D]

Finally someone making a full review on a 'regular' engine with sport line instead of doing another M235i M Sport line that no one will actually buy, or at least not the majority of people searching for a review. also, you chose black paint wich also is more realistic! thank u keep up the good job

[@UberusEpicus]

I went to check it out at the dealer. It looks a lot better in real life than on video, it looks fantastic!

[@monahikosglaros626]

I have exactly the same experience

[@buzzingwolf2323]

quite a stunning car, its kind of unique looking for a bmw

[@rohitkejriwal1]

- The colour does make a difference, looks good in black.

[@UKArtlover]

Yes it seems either people love or hate the design . I personally …. Love it and bought one last night , the cabin quality is also stunning in the flesh ( has the biggest pro nav screen and very nice black leather ) 220d MSport 15 months old , no longer made , looking forward to 55+mpg on a run fingers crossed , as a user I’m mostly in it alone so the rear will probably mostly be storage , I think it’s a little quality jewel that looks especially good from behind …😊

[@kishona69]

One of the few reviewers who understand who BMW made this car for. Kudos!

[@alibulut3724]

Wow, such a handsome great car. Looks like The 8 gran coupe but smaller love it.

[@georgecorfield8284]

Never been a fan of any BMWs really but this one caught my attention! The boot is a great look, can't see why anyone wouldn't like the design haha. Great review, nice to see a review of a "normal" engine too as opposed to the top end 360BHP options haha

[@NobbyOnCars]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@Bistonounou123]

Good review, I like the car . It will bring a new customer to BMW I think 👍🏻

[@alandeacon6568]

Three cylinder BMW that's cheered me up

[@digitalmesh]

Never drove BMW, not big on cars and pretty much don't know a thing a bout engines. But daaaamnnn I did a testdrive today 60 minutes of pure joy. Ordering on monday, company car so only 16' default wheels but even with those the car looks great. yesterdayb had a test drive with an Audi A3 sportback, or atleast that was what I thought. I got there and they give me a 2017 Audi A3 Berline. Like what really. Driving the BMW 2 gran coup (with M performance wheels tho) today immediatly sold me to the car. nice review aswell, everyone keeps on reviewing the S ling or M sport models but 26277 view telll me that alot of people need *this* review. cheers

[@dannysingh6240]

Rear window won't go down all the way probably because of the angle of the tumblehome. It's also why the Lambo Countach had to have letterbox side windows.

[@NobbyOnCars]

Every day is a school day !

[@95acw88]

The boot hgas an extension where the spare wheel usually goes, makes it slightly deeper

[@MrSunnyBhoy]

Good review, but this car makes no sense, it's slightly bigger than a one series but who needs that? You would opt for a 3 or 4 series of you need more space. But it does look very sleek in black and I do like the design

[@MrBazz26]

BMW's answer to a question nobody asked.

[@borinvlogs]

this company has become really unattractive over the years. just look at the size of grilles on new 4 series and m3 m4. absolutely dog shit

[@ridgmont61]

I had a 2 series grand tourer as a courtesy car whilst my BMW was being serviced. Later I asked the garage to leave a not on my records to never issue me with a 2 series again - it was just horrible to drive and didn't feel like a BMW. I do like the appearance of this one - slightly more edgy from BMW.

[@NobbyOnCars]

Was never a fan myself although it drove better than it looked!

[@Tonysoprano497]

Looks a whole lot better in real life .. bmw finance being so good it can make this a much cheaper option than the merc and Audi competitors

[@NobbyOnCars]

I've seen a reasonable amount of them on the roads too!

[@brianiswrong]

Nice review. The rear windows seem form over function. Were they not frameless I think they would add a "filler" plate or fixed pane to shorten the length of the moving window ,so it could travel all the way down. But they didn't ,so it doesn't😃

[@NobbyOnCars]

bryan but they didn’t do it doesn’t 🤣

[@leemurf2322]

Ordered one yesterday but got to wait until March! Gutted about the chip shortage

[@charmeur1234]

hey, i also order one yesterday and get my car 22.02.2022 :-) For me its a great car i driving now with a hyundai i 20 so for me its a better car. Good luck.

[@DID_IT_MYSELF]

Ive got one coming in March 2021. I ordered it in August 2020 so im really chomping at the bit now.

[@NobbyOnCars]

What colour did you go for?

[@DID_IT_MYSELF]

@@NobbyOnCars i think it is seaside blue. I wanted the orange, because i used to have a Lexus in a similar colour and loved it. But my mrs won the coin flip.

[@henrik-j1l]

Why didn’t they make it a hatch like til 4GT. nice review

[@NobbyOnCars]

Thank you! Not a bad idea on the hatch

[@e3a115]

Thanks

[@MrCS-81]

Can u sit with to persons in front without hitting the arms in the midle

[@jakehallam262]

Does the 218i sport lowest version model have interior lighting, e.g different colour LED options in the footwell etc?

[@NobbyOnCars]

Lighting but don't think the colours can be changed

[@donalquane5017]

The bmw 1 series or bmw grand coupe , which car did you prefer? 👍

[@NobbyOnCars]

Looks wise the 1 series, it’s also unashamedly the entry level BMW. The 316i saloon used to sell by the bucketload in Ireland, this could fill that gap.

[@travelsphereuk-7090]

Nice review 👍 🛎

[@NobbyOnCars]

Thank you 👍

[@jamesearley5062]

I have to select a new co car soon and this is on the menu along with the 1 series. I currently have a 3 series saloon but do sometimes miss not having the carrying capacity of a hatch/estate. I actually reallly like the looks of this coupe, it's a bit different, but it seems the 1 is a more practical choice for carrying stuff or passengers in the rear. How to decide.......

[@NobbyOnCars]

If you use your boot a lot, the 1 series will be easier to get stuff into.

[@jamesearley5062]

@@NobbyOnCars Saw the Coupe in the flesh today, in black, looked more understated than I expected and quite sleek to my eyes. Tempting even if I do like the versatility of a hatch.....

[@marktwain-ik6vp]

get the i4 !

I have a 2011 135i. Everything is broken. Eveything has always been broken.

@@NobbyOnCars I've owned BMWs for 30 of the 40 years I've been buying cars. Over the last 20 years BMW has degraded to the point where I would call them the worst built cars on the planet. The engines are 50% plastic and the plastic deteriorates to the point of falling off the bone in 5 to 10 years. Its disgraceful crap. Amazingly, BMWs are statistically second to Porsche on the official worst built cars list. www.motor1.com/features/177033/most-expensive-car-truck-maintenance/ I can't imagine a worse experience, Porsche must use playdough instead of engine plastic. I spent more to repair my last 135i than I paid for it new, and its kbb resale value is almost $0, while it still needs a new convertible top as the cloth has completely disintegrated, a new a/c compressor, a new drivers seat from a huge spontaneous pleather tear, a new dash which is delaminating, and has 7 identifiable massive oil leaks including the rear main seal. The manual transmission is also getting very notchy. It has has run for about 2 weeks, since I bought it 9 years ago, without a dash light. So I guess that leaves room for Porsche to suck even worse. Mercedes and VW-Audi (plus VW-Porsche in #1) are all high on the crap car list, making German cars, without a doubt, the most putrid garbage one can buy. Disgraceful shitbuckets. Awful, horrible, dusgusting, fraudulent, imbecile engineering. The worst names you can call these idiots isn't near bad enough.

[@fredriksvard2603]

Thats the actual 3 series and the 3 series is the 5 series

[@MilanKazarka]

Ok - so - someone buying this instead of a Skoda Octavia = just because of the brand, right?

[@MilanKazarka]

@Christopher Fitzpatrick yup. So essentially someone who's driving a second car side by side to this one so they can look at this :D

[@HH-wd2cn]

Funny guy
