[@lebo552]

Got mine yesterday, really love it!

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Great to hear! Hope you're enjoying it. Thanks for watching!

[@swedishbob_7315]

VW Golf and BMW 3 Series... both timeless shape

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Agreed.

[@mango5672]

nice vid maybe turn the music down feel like i’m in a blade movie

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Thanks for the feedback - sorry for the Blade flashbacks!

Love the review man, keep making these videos G

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Thanks! Will do!

[@jamessia5307]

Hi does this have the fixed passive m suspension? Does it get too harsh and uncomfortable for daily in town?

[@jirikrajnak9047]

i hate the dashboard screen. removing physical buttons and burying functions behind menu screens is exactly what was worrying me.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Putting nearly all in car functionality into a centre screen is a trend with just about every brand right now. For the manufacturers it's cheaper and easier, but for the drivers it can be a little frustrating especially when driving an unfamiliar car. Thanks for watching!

[@SeluangBagoh]

​@@4wheelsandaseat i never buy. Its disgusting and not inspiring at all. Bad decision from BMW. BMwuekkk.

[@aria0587]

Great review well done

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Thank you kindly. Cheers.

[@godziwearscons9511]

This is the way!

[@easyaussietarget3355]

Lol...."This is the way!" Funniest comment I have seen for a while❤

[@jimmyrecard4390]

Really like it. Grew up a petrol head and love the marquee brands. But once you drive a tesla 3 performance or seal performance it's all over. You get M4 performance and build quality without any petrol or service costs.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

True, but I miss the noise and the individual character. Having said that, after I review an EV, getting back into a petrol car can feel a bit old-fashioned. Thanks for watching!

[@Wrzy360]

How many horsepowers has it got?

[@NightstalkerKK]

I did not see the manual mode (m/s) on the box, does that still exist?

[@4wheelsandaseat]

You can change gears manually with the paddles anytime and it will stay in manual until you come to a stop I believe.

[@Riku7okester]

I love your reviews but I just hate your background music… maybe and lower down the audio since it’s really annoying 🫥… but thanks for the good reviews about BMW 320🙏

[@jonnyfez]

Watched a BMW demo of iDrive 8 and it showed maps in the instrument cluster.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Yes in a later BMW review I found that I had made a mistake saying that. Apologies.

[@MrJoanGaming]

Not only you can have maps on you front screen but can also have Apple Maps shown

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Yes that is true as I found out when I test drove the 330i. Thanks for watching!

[@boncolumbard3182]

'Till be my new car soon!

[@boncolumbard3182]

Should have read.....'twill be my new car soon!

[@NorthernSpartan]

@@boncolumbard3182 its ok dyslexia is ok

[@mkviis]

It's a really nice car but it's hard for me to go for an automatic when I'm used to a dual clutch transmission.

[@jameshunt4611]

I could have forgone the curved screen to be honest

[@charlieeduardo1033]

WHATS THE NAME OF THIS COLOUR?

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Grey something. I don't think it's a standard colour for this car.

[@AhmedMohamed-gh9xe]

Its Brooklyn grey

[@bommabriggs]

thanks, good review ....but ....if you're going to wear tight jeans don't put so much crap in your pockets !

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Haha. Thank you for the sartorial tip!

[@luismiguelgarciacanan5245]

Me gusta bmw para Albertina

[@milantomich6568]

I want to know with turbo how long these engines can go? I don't like at all how these Germans cars are these days. They totally lost quality and reliability.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

Well I would think that as long as you keep the servicing up, it should last for decades. BMW have just introduced 5 year warranties, and while that is lower than a lot of car makers, it does mean that they have some confidence in their product. Thanks for watching.

[@joebloggs4191]

The new gen BMW drivetrains are proving pretty robust especially this B48 and the 6 cylinder B58. Nothing to worrry about really.

[@milantomich6568]

@joebloggs4191 6 cylinder yes. . How about 4 cylinders? I know 4 is to low and small for turbo.

[@joebloggs4191]

@@milantomich6568 B48 is the 4 cylinder as fitted to this 320i and it’s been around since around 2014 or 2015 and has proven to be very reliable. It also does not have any electrification (mild hybrid) as some its competitors do which means less to go wrong later down the line. In addition Toyota use both this 4 cylinder as well as the B58 6 cylinder in their Mk5 Supra so that’s saying something.

[@milantomich6568]

@joebloggs4191 Turbo is the problem, not 4 cylinder. There is too much power for small engines. Cannot last like without turbo. Without turno, that car would have maybe 130 hp.

[@hch720]

2.0L turbo engine with only 184 hp, disappointingly weak engine power. Other brands of cars have 2.0L turbo engines with more than 250 hp.

[@Shaggy12321]

So do BMW, their own 330i has 250 from the exact same engine - the B48 in the 320i is just an ECU change away from it.

[@joebloggs4191]

@@Shaggy12321 the 330i has strengthened internals compared to the 320i but yes basically the same.

[@RussellCatchpole]

Just about every change is horrible. So glad I’ve got the previous version.

[@speedmaster5005]

Can’t afford it then

[@SeluangBagoh]

LCD sreen is suck, bulky and disgusting

[@4wheelsandaseat]

The current trend of flat LCD screens is not for everyone, but I don't think they're going anywhere soon.

[@SeluangBagoh]

@@4wheelsandaseat ya true sir. Its funny to see the bulky screen. It looks cheap, x insiring and spoils everything. Reason why I wont upgrade to 2023.

[@MatthewCyUK]

"6.6 litres per hundred kilometres" As far as stating fuel efficiency, that is the most backwards, butchering of the English language I think I've ever heard on any car video. Horrifying that that is anyone's normal way of speaking about that aspect of driving.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

I’m curious - how do you think it should be stated?

[@MatthewCyUK]

@@4wheelsandaseat xx miles/km to unit of fuel. Like the rest of the world.

[@4wheelsandaseat]

@@MatthewCyUK right okay. I have to admit you’re the first person who has ever mentioned that to me. Thinking about it, that is how it is done in US reviews. Car makers in Australia do not supply fuel consumption information that way - it is only litres per 100kms on a urban, highway or combined cycle which is the figure I always quote.

[@easyaussietarget3355]

​@@4wheelsandaseat Sounded fine to a fellow aussie❤

[@MrE.888]

Some cars will give this as a measurement. Mostly where miles aren't used. MPG or l/100km
