REVIEW:

BMW's latest 3 Series is a 3.0 litre engine developing 302bhp.

In this day and age, where the tax man hits our pockets for high vehicle emissions, BMW have managed to give us exactly what the market needed, a performance car with none of the high performance penalties.

This car slots neatly between the 330i and the latest V8 M3 BMW, and this latest E92 generation looks sleek and cool with a bit of muscle.

A lower and more elongated silhouette than previous models, gives the 335i SE an heir of elegance, re-styled front grilles give a much cleaner look and the head lights appear to stare right at you.

Prices start around £33,420 for the SE model, and this car probably offers you more than any other 3 Series out there.

Frighteningly quick, but elegant and understated there are no obvious weak points for it to overcome.
