Very quiet and economical (although not as economical as he would have liked, surprising as many green car sites has the 3 Series right at the top) , faster than the petrol version and even a belief it is quieter than the 5 series. This is an older review dated back to 2006 when the new BMW 3 Series was released by the Fifth Gear team in a drive over from Madrid to Blighty. Jason Plato decided the best way to test the new BMW 3 series was to put a month’s driving into 49 hours, in better words 1000 miles in 2 days on this road trip.
The final result was good but a bit expensive compared to the competition, this model accounts for 50% of BMWs sale worldwide and 1 million Brits own one in some version.
It is also one of the most popular lease models as the entry level executive car, that will hold its value well. Watch the Fifth Gear Video
