    M4 CSL concept (origin unknown)... thought they'd legalised cannabis in Canada, not Munich :eek:

    The 'kick-up-the-backside' look has been here before, so there's a passing resemblance there in the three-quarter view, only the Concept has been fed a diet of steroids [and remember it IS only a concept].

    I actually quite like it, apart from the grilles which seems to be a general styling move prevalent in BMW's current thinking, although not so extreme as in some discussed elsewhere on the forum.

    Render of the new M3, minus the obligatory bonnet bulge and M specific wing mirrors. The black grille is certainly an improvement over the chrome one

    I like the look of that M3. Black grills almost look acceptable. :rolleyes:

    Ad for the G20... presumably the target audience being those not interested in cars and prefer dancing :rolleyes:

    What a weird advert. I think that someone in marketing must have been smoking Wacky Backy.
    I'm surprised there wasn't any Rap - makes a welcome change. :rolleyes:

    I'm still totally in the dark about any of the G20 features, other than it has 'Reversing Assistant'.

    I was impressed by the updated interior of the 3 series very much aligned with the rest of the market

    I specced a 320i & 330i up as below and surprised at the competive pricing if you don’t want to own outright!

    I’ve looked at four cars, in two showrooms (Aberdeen & Dundee)
    Ultimately I’m akin to bigger cars otherwise most definately, very smart inside and blossomed with maturity outside
    Looking across in the Darkside, I believe the 3 series has a notch above the A4 with cabin refinement
    My only query would be long term durability as some of the plastics are a bit hard and appear fragile.

    I’ll reveal my decision tree when delivery is confirmed, it’s not quite as knee jerk reaction as portrayed

    Sat at the dealers whilst my car is serviced.

    An array of new 3 series in the showroom, it would appear black grilles are "in" at the moment.

    Prices are something else, a 320d ....£36 k, or a 320d x drive with a few options £46,000 !!!!!

    a new 3 series 320 D SE with X drive with no other options is £36,805.00 tick every option and it pushes it to £43,045.00 so the sport or M sport versions with options will hit the 46K mark
