In this video Carfection (formerly XCAR) takes a look at the mighty BMW M4 GTS. It is officially the fastest BMW car ever produced and that is saying something. It is legal for the road but I’ve no doubt it would be more at home on the track. Purposeful, mean and only 700 will be […]

It is slightly longer than the BMW X3 but also lower, emphasizing the sporting character of this car. […]
It may be something of a mouthful, but if you are keen on supersaloons then this is the car that you simply must own – it is the BMW M5 30 Jahre Edition and it is the most powerful car BMW has brought to the UK. Ever. It is a limited run of just 300 […]
