Used BMW 3 Series 1998 - 2005

The BMW 3 Series is superb in almost every way, but it's more costly to buy than rivals of similar age.

Used BMW 3 Series 2005 - 2012

It was introduced more than a decade ago, but this BMW 3 Series remains a hugely desirable car because it's excellent to drive, well-made and has useful interior space.

Used BMW 3 Series 2012-2019

The BMW 3 Series is still one of the best used executive cars out there, and a superb all-rounder.

Used BMW 3 Series 2019-present

The BMW 3 Series is a top-notchexecutive car that's great to drive and easy to live with. It's a terrific used buy.

Used BMW 3 Series Compact 2001 - 2004

The BMW 3 Series Compact is a fine-handling, premium-badged hatchback, but it's not as spacious as a VW Golf or Audi A3.

Used BMW 3 Series Convertible 1994 - 2000

Age is now taking its toll, but good examples are still great

Used BMW 3 Series Convertible 2000 - 2006

The BMW 3 Series convertible is good to drive, desirable, roomy and comfortable.

Used BMW 3 Series Convertible 2007 - 2014

The BMW 3 Series Convertible is the best of both worlds – a coupe that you can lower the roof of – but it comes at a price.

Used BMW 3 Series Coupe 1999 - 2006

The BMW 3 Series Coupe is quiet, solid, rewarding to drive and very desirable.

Munich-based BMW is most famous for its sports saloons, in particular the 3 Series and 5 Series. However, it actually builds almost every type of car imaginable: everything from small coupés to seven-seat MPVs.

The cheapest model in the BMW range is the 1 Series hatchback, which is a rival to the Audi A3, Mercedes-Benz A-Class and Volkswagen Golf. Meanwhile, at the other extreme is the X7 luxury SUV, which can easily cost more than £100,000.

BMW was also quick to capitalise on the rise of the SUV and now has more than ten in its range, covering petrol, diesel, electric and plug-in hybrid power options.

All of this makes it one of the big three German prestige brands, along with Audi and Mercedes-Benz.
