Sporty style, premium quality and hatchback practicality for less than £10,000 when used. This is the BMW_UK 4 Series Gran Coupé...
Diesels start with the 420d, an engine that is far more flexible and fuel efficient than the 420i. Our only complaint is that it is a little unrefined compared with the equivalent oil-burners in the Audi A5 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupé. A better bet is the automatic-only six-cylinder 430d, because it’s far smoother, has massive mid-range surge for truly effortless pace and yet is also impressively frugal.
Unlike the 3 Series Gran Turismo, the 4 Series Gran Coupé handles just as well as the car on which it’s based. The steering is responsive and allows you to accurately place the vehicle on the road. It’s more involving than the A5 Sportback, which can be a little bit heavy at times and doesn’t offer much feedback. The 4 Series Gran Coupé also benefits from rear-wheel drive, but you can find models with four-wheel drive if you live in an area that experiences snow.
Aside from the fine handling, the ride – especially when equipped with adaptive dampers – treads the fine line between passenger comfort and body control. Where the standard suspension can thump over bumps and potholes, the adaptive version can be set to Comfort, which takes the edge off the very worst jolts. Avoiding anything with 19in wheels helps as well. and material quality, on the whole, is good.
, the 4 Series Gran Coupé doesn’t feel quite so luxurious. The driving position is compromised slightly because the pedals are offset to the right, but all the major controls fall easily to hand.
