BMW 3 Series Coupe 335d M Sport 2dr

For The 335d has enough muscle to stop the Earth from turning, yet it's economical enough to stretch a tankful of diesel for 500 miles. M Sport versions handle superbly.

Against There's a firm edge to the ride of M Sport models (unless you specify the regular suspension), especially at low speeds. Prices are stiff, too. For many buyers, the less-expensive diesels will be more than quick enough.

What Car? says

4 out of 5 stars

Near-supercar performance meets small hatch economy in one car: incredible. The high price relative to the excellent models lower down the range is the biggest drawback.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The Coupe doesn’t have quite such a wide engine range as the saloon or Touring versions of the 3 Series, but there are still four petrols and four diesels to choose from.

Our favourite is the 335i. Why spend nearly half as much again on an M3 when the 335i is so quick? On a more modest budget and with an eye on the tax bill for company car drivers, the 320d is a compelling car, but to be honest, there isn’t a bad model in the range.

There’s a choice of SE and M Sport specifications. SE comes with a long list of standard equipment and costs much less, so it’s the one we’d recommend. On the other hand, M Sport models have sportier looks and stiffened suspension for the ultimate in handling.

It’s worth buying one of BMW’s inclusive servicing packages, which will make the car easier to sell on.
