Why Buy An M3 Touring? The New BMW M340i Touring Review - 0-60mph Test!

[@amphilbey]

Great video, bought a new M340i Touring last month to replace a 330d and loving it, great value with the discounts too. Effortless performance and on some mundane long runs in Eco Pro got an easy 38mpg.

[@DrivenPlus]

Thank you! Brilliant cars

[@PauperTrader]

One of the best all rounders I've ever owned. Great video again.

[@DrivenPlus]

Thanks Rich 👊

[@alistairg6770]

Excellent, great to see a UK review of this monster!

[@DrivenPlus]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@semperf1dude]

Perfect car, so pleased with my Pre face lifted Portimao Blue M340i X-Drive

[@skar9975]

Have the same. Better looking.

[@keithronson2624]

PS. Sorry James! Missed Max's sign off! Amazing! You have great taste in cars! BMW is the best!

[@keithronson2624]

Max. Automotive PERFECTION! And therefore has to be a BMW! As you say why buy an M3 Touring when you can buy this? Understated [i for one would remove the 340i badge]] Who ever is the lucky owner of this amazing machine, spec'd to 'perfection'. Stunning. You know when you have that game with your mates when you say what would you have if money no object... me, always one of these! All the care you will ever need. [And passes the Sainsbury's carpark test!] Thank you Max and the ownere of this superb BMW. The best driving machine.

[@DrivenPlus]

Thanks Keith, safe to say I am a fan of this too, hell of a package 👌

[@Flaumsta]

Hmm, didn't Joe Achilles get an almost identical 0-60 time from a standard M340i touring?

[@lgx2410]

Funny, all the cool features, engine, etc., and the bit that gets me excited is the flip-up boot window.

[@DrivenPlus]

🤣🤣 love it!

[@BenB91]

Prefer the pre-LCI model. Big screen looks odd.

[@skar9975]

Problem with the gear stick I found in RHD cars, you can’t take out the coffee cup from the holder without looking down. No fan of that toggle either.

[@rupertblackham]

Car looks great. Can you share the exterior spec including customisations? Paint, wheels, wing mirrors, spoiler etc.

[@eliotbuffoni639]

Really interesting review, great story and standpoint 😅

[@DrivenPlus]

My man Eliot 👊 thank you 🙌

[@mikerogers7983]

Great review. I'm now seriously considering the M340i tourer to replace my Golf R Estate maybe next year.

[@DrivenPlus]

Thank you! Great cars and worthy upgrade from a Golf R 👌

Great review 👍 Have a fully spect one of these on order and can't wait to have it delivered! It went into production this week so hopefully it won't be too long now 🙂

[@DrivenPlus]

Thank you! I bet you are excited 😃

Been excited since mid June when I placed the order 🤣

[@roli3454]

Hi! I placef my fully spect order in late june and my car got delivered at my dealer yesterday, I will pick it up next week!

Wow, that's awesome and amazingly quick considering I placed my order mid June with expected delivery week 47 🤥

[@roli3454]

@ Oh that is waay to much time..

[@AndreasDanzer]

Good regiew with nice pictures - can you tell us the colour? Is it skyscraper grey?

[@DrivenPlus]

Thank you and yes it is

[@csanvi]

Super review buddy. No point spending that extra 30 grands , when you can have an all rounder. Those look like 20's, how was the ride comfort?

[@DrivenPlus]

Thank you! These alloys were fitted aftermarket actually. Ride was still good considering 20’s

[@PLAYER2035]

Wish they brought this into Australia, we only got the sedan

[@peterdelight513]

Subbed. Great vid. Just about to order mine. Can’t wait. Hot car.

[@DrivenPlus]

Thanks for the sub! You will love it!

[@MutsaGanda]

Good family car.

[@DrivenPlus]

Totally agree!

[@SMK-ei3gu]

What wheels are those?

[@DrivenPlus]

795M

[@Franzino]

I have driven a M340i Touring and M3 Touring…the difference is massive! Ok the M340i is a fast car, but that’s all it is for me. And yes ofcourse it’s cheaper…

[@stefandjordjevic9]

wheels are WOW.

[@COYS111]

Can you option that illuminating M logo in your seat?

[@DrivenPlus]

Unfortunately not, it’s an aftermarket modification

[@uez5730]

where can I get those wheels ?

[@DrivenPlus]

From BMW

[@Becausefamilycar]

It’s not an m3 even with those mods. Had both and the m3 has a lot more road noise but it’s a different world

[@purevenom9381]

We in AUS don’t get this practical girl 😢

[@DrivenPlus]

That’s a shame! 🥲

[@SPQRTempus]

So I just had to make do with a M3 Touring instead.

[@torrhthc4103]

If m340 can be better than an m3, bmw m division can shut down for good

[@LukeIggleden]

Why buy m3 touring. Depreciation way less on M cars!

[@ChrisEdward-l4h]

99% of the time it grips, every time
