They are a looker. Much better than the saloon. Right wheel drive too - I really enjoyed my 55 plate E91.

I prefer the look of the saloon, and if you get split folding seats then there is ample room. But, I appreciate there are those whose choice is the wagon. Good luck OP.

Very nice. I really like that wheel design. Which engine is it?

I’d get that nearside grill sorted out.

Agreed, those m grilles are cringeworthy and take away from the otherwise really good looks that these cars have.

+1 on the grill. Too many Beemers in recent times getting the Max Power treatment. The result will be that people start to think of Beemers as chav chariots.

OEM looks are best IMO.

Otherwise, great choice. Which engine?

I've only had 1 saloon in my life! Always preferred estate cars due to they're practicality.

Agree! I'm looking at the previous version at the moment, and I much prefer the estates.

Also agree with others about the grill colours, I saw them on an otherwise standard car yesterday as it happens and it made me shudder.

Start? They have been for years! Am a previous BMW owner as well before the flaming smile

Good looking car there OP - the estates look so right and much better than the saloons imho

+1 on the grill. Otherwise car looks really nice and the wheels do suit it.
