Continuing the them of the new BMW 3 series, we want to show this excellent video from the USA form Rosenthal. We often see vehicle reviews on TV and on the web but we especially like the way this was done because they put a 2011 BMW 3 Series next to the 2010 version and compared it so we can get a real feel of the improvements or changes over the previous model. The test drive is done from the passenger seat, something we are not used to seeing, it is normally the driver who speaks, something different. Professionally presented this car has the X drive (not sure if this available in the UK) and has the M sport package so does not represent the full BMW 3 Series range and so could be a bit biased on the model. The other obvious fact is this review in the USA when fuel is cheaper than in the UK (even though most Americans cannot believe the price of gas) , so the UK market is probably more orientated to the diesel engine market, especially when BMW has a fantastic range of frugal engines delivering over 70mpg and keeping the benefit in kind figure on company cars to as low as 13%. Most BMW 3 Series Lease deals taken out are based on frugal engines and low CO2 emissions. here is the video presented by Rosenthal.
