BMW 3 Series E46 Review (1997-2005)

Picture of BMW 3 Series (1997-2005) BMW’s compact executive class 3 Series – in this case the fourth-generation E46 version of the car – blends suave styling with exciting driving characteristics, and has long been the aspirational choice for those who don’t want to settle for more mainstream alternatives such as the Ford Mondeo or Vauxhall Vectra. The BMW 3 Series E46 is available as a regular saloon, neat coupe, stylish convertible, and smart-looking estate car with a range of engine sizes and both automatic and manual gearboxes.

3.5 Overall rating

Really pretty car, a joy to drive. Driving a convertible is a unique experience. Makes every trip to the shops a real treat. A true future classic.

Electronics on these cars are an absolute nightmare I would advise people to steer clear of secondhand vehicles after around 50k they start becoming unreliable the best thing about them is the fuel economy is brilliant
