    This is the first car that is built into a sports sedan which gain international praise for the ultimate driving machine, including myself living in Australia owning my E30 as my first daily commuter 20 years ago was always fun to drive & practical in the real world. I’ve driven also the E36 & E46 models in the past but still want another E30 but cause now I currently drive my E83 X3 which still got that straight six engine & balanced handling is great, the essence of the 3 series.

    I always love the good old Bimmers. 3 series is like a cult, but in a good way of course. This is why it's one of my most favourite cars. I love the roomy of the 5 series but the agility of 3 series. The F30 is the one I think I will go for. I hope BMW somehow can bring back the M3 in a coupe format because it such an icon.

    The 3er was the car that did everything. Sporty RWD handling, muscular inline-6, responsive steering, yet is the safe, compact, practical, comfortable and luxurious family car when you needed it to be.
