#BMW #BMW6Series #WhatCar - Auta a dopravní prostředky
New 3.0GT6 diesel xdrive arrived in September - so far completed 3,000 miles in total comfort and averaging 42 to the gallon. Love it!
Love it. I'm a chauffeur, and SPACE is so important - the 6GT is sedan-like enough to use as a limo, but with a fantastic boot. Even if BMW lowered the price of the 7-series to match it, I'd STILL prefer the 6 GT due to the practicality. Well done BMW!
Greg Sullivan Eh the 7 series is more practical than one may think. Rear legroom is better in this though but it’s still a lot cheaper. Going from a 7 to a 5 for example really lets you see all the cost cutting between them
Is it just me or is Rebecca throwing in innuendo on purpose in these vids now 😂
I actually think it looks really good.
Right. And the car is also nice.
@@wszystkojedno696 😊
Looking forward for you doing the review of new Bmw X4 2019 model.
ive got one.... bloody lovely car....as an ex Audi driver it's head and shoulders above......
In the states, these are getting heavily discounted to the point it cost basically the same as a X3 M40i. I would definitely pick this over the X3
Seems more suited for Europe where hatchbacks are more popular. But, huge. I saw one in Brussels and it was a hulk in traffic.
I really like this car, it’s a 4x4, a little sporty and a fantastic cruiser. A used car bargain.
Please, what is the the colour of the car in this test drive? thanks
Does it suffer the air suspension failure issues that the 5GT always has
Excellent car and as fast as you like in 640i version. I sold my 7 series to buy this as I did not like looking like a chauffeur and I appreciate the huge load space -more than a 5 series Touring - for real world driving. I would direct serious buyers to the ‘savagegeese’ review of this car which shows the technology of the underpinnings of this car.
Better than Panamera, CLS and A7!!! I wish I had one!! The conception of luxury, comfort and space is undoubtedly........... Clever!!!!
I concur
I don't know. I love it but that Panamera is....... Amazing.
The 5GT was also based on the 7 series saloon chassis 🙈
Nope, it was the F07, which was the first launch of the 5 Series F10 platform.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_5_Series_Gran_Turismo
The F07 was 100% based on the 7 series chassis and platform. Even the dash was from the 7 and used tech not available in the 5 series at the time. I have one in the driveway 😂
Looking at the Wikipedia link, that’s clearly where the video got the wrong info from too.
Yep it was, the inside has the spaciousness of the 7 series, I should know I have a f07 5gt also and it's awesome. Im loving the performance and all. Full double lumbar ssd's support. This seat will hug you in many ways Rebbeca won't lml.
I owned one and I liked it but with the run flat tires the ride is awful and the car feels toyish.
Make sure you get regular tires for it.
I know its an old video, but why would you make a shaped centre rear seat section- instead of it being flat-so the 5th passenger could actually sit more comfortably. Still to this day car companies get this so wrong
This is a family car for hauling bulky items. It's not a A7, CLS or Panamera rival.
Agreed... although I'd argue it is a Panamera ST (wagon) rival. I think of the 6-GT as an alternative to an E-Class wagon or one of those hideous SUV-Coupe things.
If you drive one on a long distance cruise - you will see the A7 and CLS are simply not in it's class. Both are better looking ( perhaps personal opinion ) but neither come close to the 5/6 Series GT for comfort. No contest..
Does anybody know which colour this one has? Sophisto grey or bluestone metallic?
Good job, Becs
El bronceado le queda muy muy bien... Mis Watson
If only the regular 5 series or even 3ser had that air brake/spoiler
You lost me at £275 for lumbar support on a *fifty grand* car?!
Willy Nilly at least you get driver seat. Some other brands there's no seat at all but stool.
didn't watch to the end yet, but apparently no hybrid?
*Not even that BMW can match the classiness of Rebecca* 😍😍😍😍😍
Steve123 R8 I'll take her over bmw
She can leave you but the bmw won't ha haaa
Rebecca! You should run your own show! Till then I'm subbing here...
Best look from all
Lovely car!
Looking lovely
Jason Miller Rebecca, right? 😉
Can I take out on a ride in mines?
ok Rebecca...I'll buy it!
Is it me or is that mic in the car a have a bit rumble noise....while driving
Based on the title....
No based on looks
Yes based on interior packaging (space etc...)
But for me aesthetics trump practically
The 5 Series GT ( which is what this re badged car is ) was based on the 7 Series platform and was never based on the 5 series platform - so nothing new here.
STOP EDITING OUT THE WHALE-TAIL SHOTS!
Hi. Sorry, but I don't get what WHALE-TAIL shots means?? LOL!!
@@biz4twobiz463 Lou finds Rebecca Jackson quite attractive.
@@bempartington4299 ... nice!! This girl does too!! lol
The 5 Series GT is not 5 Series based. It's just as much 7 Series based as the 6 Series GT.
Beautiful and so much more practical than Mercedes CLS - not only Merc is built for minions, at the back your head will hit the ceiling if you're taller than average 13yo plus the boot doesn't open hatch back style. Completely impractical, not to mention some poor quality interior elements like scratchy plastics. I've owned 5GT, which looks much better interior quality than 6GT but still a very decent substitute.
Ace review as always Rebecca. I have never been a fan of this GT series and this one is no different. The front looks typical BMW but the back and 3/4 back looks horrible and lardy. The CLS looks much better and the A7 better still.
It’s not an A7 or CLS rival
///M /////AMG [R]S Exactly! It doesn't have its counterpart with the likes of Audi nor Merc. That's gonna be the 8 series gran coupe...
it is
@@denisdenyjamny Do you know how much more expensive the 8 series is? the 6 series is the direct equivalent to A7 and CLS.
Nice, car not bad either!!
Nice car but the design is classic
What does this do that a 5 Series Touring doesn't ?
More leg room, and a more sedan-like appearance. I love it, and will be seriously considering it for my next limo. (I'm a limo driver). I think it will sell very well here in Australia, due to the demise of the Holden Caprice.
Pop-up rear spoiler! Yeeeeeeaaah
They need to stop trying to cross a saloon, SUV and coupe, and just build a pure coupe again.
YES! YES! YES! Totally agree...
They have now -it’s called an 8 Series and costs £30k more
Remember when BMW used to make fantastic looking cars and everyone aspired to owning one? Feels like a long time ago that...
I'll never watch any other review on cars AGAIN! This Rebecca has in hooked! Good Lord such a gorgeous woman; and SHE KNOWS ABOUT CARS!!!! What more could a man ask for. She is the Ultimate Woman!!! Wife material!
Isn’t the Tax for this £460+ a year ?
Yes it bloody well is - my insurance is cheaper.
Yep, and cheaper insurance than most cars
So not very good then. But like so many in the motoring press, she refuses to criticize BMW. This firm keep giving us cars nobody ever wanted! She claims it's well equipped yet points out major omissions!
Verdict: it's the presenter ,not the car that is gorgeous in this video -sorry!!
The 6 series was the last good-looking BMW
Cash Bonanza 2019 3 series or the 8 series
@@karthikc7514 the 8 is better but that's should be a 6 series. BMW calls it 8 to charge you more than the 7 series
That is one pig-ugly car: it looks like something SsangYong would've dreamt up ten years ago.
Gentle Brother nothing wrong with sangyong the design is awesome
ZS K I do like SsangYong, especially the newer models. The older ones are also likeable for offering so much for little money - but the Rodius and Musso were spectacularly ugly. I'd still rather have one of them than spending £50k on this godawful BMW!
I have one so screw you
Alexander SHE it's OK, you can always trade it in for something less grotesque.
@@alexshe9552 I'm planning to get one next year. I think this 6 series GT looks very good. Previously I was a big Audi fan but what they've done with the latest models of A6 and A7 its just a joke. They look like christmas trees inside with all the displays around.
So bored... every review just OK, FINE, or GOOD...
beautiful Rebecca😍
Seriously, no Android and Apple car play extra? I’ll take the stylish A7 please,
4-door coupe! You mean 'hatchback'.
It's a crossover.
Anyone notice the bush growing out of the gutter at the end of the video, no, just me then.
thebanditsix I see it now that you said that lol
brits keep not getting the idea of the GTs... And you always sound like you will go 1000miles an hour all day long... come on.... its a great car
I’ve had 3 so your point is??
Great review of a car with a terrible gear selector
It passed the banana storage test, this should be on everyone's buy list
Starting to look like an SUV ish?? Kinda?
posh Mondeo??
You need to be a body-builder to lift the hatchback of a mondeo, just press a button on the BMW.
You've squizzed teddy bear. It's unacceptable.
I only come on to these videos to read the Rebecca comments. Grow up, lads.
I think they just rolled a die and called this ugly design a 6-serries
Had 2 5GTs... Brilliant cars. Looked at the 6GT - not as good, so I've got a 7 series instead. Much better!
Rebecca, another fabulous review!! But, IMHO, this bmw is trash!! Yuck, yuck!!
Even numbered bmws were supposed to be Coupe platforms...
4 door coupe* = fastback roofline, pillarless doors, etc.
YES, I should have been more clear. Even numbered bmws supposed to be 2-door Coupe platforms. I am not a fan of 4 door coupe, etc.
Is rebecca included the car?😊💋😂
Wow she is really attractive
So, basically, buy a Audi A7 or Merc CLS
So not as good as a 5 series
Rebecca 🤤 boots
Great space for some fake taxi action
Borring review... All the same. Can't you came up with something different then all other UK car reviews?
Grotesque hideous lump of car falling back into Banger Era here
It's Bangle ... and btw the Bangle era 6 Series coupé looks cool and fresh to this day. This is just a huge hatchback trying to mimic a coupé, but failing miserably ...
Why does this car even exist?
For people with some taste and class to own a car that is more luxurious than most on the road, more practicality and something that doesn't look like all cars in the car park
Looks ugly...A7 any day
This girl is .. beautifull
Germany killed the Diesel!
So I cannot buy my favorite engine...🤬
No effin' way I would pick this instead of the new CLS!!!! This look ugly AF and misplaced in BMW's line of model!
The new relaxed presenting style is worlds better than the old top gear style. Please keep it up, the fake presenting didnt work. But PLEASE, stop encouraging dirty diesels. They will be gone soon.
Looks like someone knows fuck all about cars😂 diesels can be much better for the environment in many circumstances so don’t just believe what you read on the news
LOL it looks like I am not the one who needs to educate themselves. A: They are friendliER than ICE cars. Thats a simple fact. B...WTF? an electric field? lol. B? good on you poisoning people.
P B I know nothing about cars? Ah ok. Im sure you can explain to simple little me what the circumstances are...
Andy S have a look on car throttle at how long diesel cars can last. Name me ONE electric car which can last that long. Let’s see if you change your mind in 10 years time when the world is polluted with thousands of tonnes of batteries lying around that cannot be recycled. Building electric cars is much worse for the environment than building diesel cars which inevitably last longer and have increasingly advanced technologies to reduce Nox emissions. Electric cars are not the future, yes they are great in towns and cities for reducing emissions, but overall diesels last longer and are better for the environment with high MPG and emissions lowering every single year. Dieselgate has made sure of that.
Of course they are the future. You have none of your facts correct. Not a single electric car produced has had to be retired due to its batteries. But when they do they will be used for the mega chargers by the side of the road to charge cars. How long do you think the Jag ePace will last? As long if not longer than any other ICE car produced. Diesel car emmisions literally kill people. Thats why they will soon be phased out. If you dont realise that then its you who needs to question how much you know about cars. Try investigating electric cars and diesel emissions yourself instead of reading the daily fail for your info.
I think a bus would be better at cornering. And possibly better looking as well.
Good review but the presenter is massive distraction. Can’t look at the car every time she is in shot
This 6 series GT & current 5 series are two of the ugliest cars ever made
All the BMW GT cars are fugly and this is no exception.
Adam hence I ride the bus
It's OK, some like it, some want to hate it.
320 gt looks much better
Is this the ugliest BMW today?
valgehiir have a look at the 2 Series Gran Tourer. It looks like a SsangYong
No it isn't. Have you seen the BMW 2 series tourers? They're ghastly
This has got to be one of the ugliest cars ever made.
LOL! It has the front end of a 5 series. It's that the ugliest car? Such a lazy and clichéd reply
@@ElenarMT It may have the front end of a 5 series, but the rear end is beyond hideous. The whole thing is simply revolting. It's been two years since I made this comment and it's still as true today as it was then. This vehicle is truly a monstrosity
@@wavelengthaudio meh oh well. I drive mine and love it. Other people who see it love it. I think saying it's beyond hideous or a monstrosity is really a bit much. But oh well. What do you drive?
This is not ugly, just not worthy of the '6' badge. The E65 7 Series pre -LCI front end ... now that's ugly 😯.
fine particulate air pollution, need I say more?
Rebecca is as lovely as ever. But, I hate to tell you, luv, but diesels are dirty. USA buyers won't touch one. a small turbo gas/ petrol engine is a much better choice. So, move here!
JR S it’s a UK review?? What a stupid comment. That’s like me commenting on an American review saying F-150s are too big move to England where there aren’t any big pick ups
Brainwashed? By any chance do you have bleach blonde hair?
P B last time I checked, the UK is located on the same planet as the USA. You have same global warming and polluted air to breathe. Diesels are dirty. Maybe you have been deluded by oil companies.
JR S Perhaps you have been deluded by dieselgate and other news reports, not all diesels have to be dirty and emissions laws are being lowered. New technology is reducing nox emissions and diesels are capable of more miles and better mpg. Fact. Using petrol and electric cars can be more damaging to the environment in many circumstances.
why bmw making such ugly cars now
Face the facts A7 is better than this in every way. Looks FARRR better too
Would take that over this Panamera 2.0
Chillシ they are different cars and the Panamera is like the A7 not this.
Unbelievable, still promoting diesel !
What’s wrong with diesels
Only a moron would ask whats wrong with diesels, only everything !
Diesels are cheaper to run that’s why people don’t want
Looks like someone believes too much of what they read in the news and clearly doesn’t know the first thing about cars. I hope you aren’t an adult Eric otherwise that is rather embarrassing😂
Shes put on weight her thighs are bigger
Nope cls is way better
No. Just no.
Agh the crackle as you rasp your voice at end of every sentence gets very annoying. Abouttttt bmw racing carsssssss.
What a hideous car! What's wrong with BMW?
Rebecca is charming, but the number of incorrect facts at first minutes of this video is shocking. The statement that 5GT F07 was based on 5-series F10/F11 insulted me, as previous owner of 5GT 530d and 5GT 535i X-drive. "Only beaten by Mercedes 2.9L diesel" - sorry what?? "A7 and CLS" - should not be mentioned in this review.
It's ugly AF.
Ugly, stupid and extremely pointless car!
This is a very neutral review with a beautiful woman cancelling out an ugly car
BMW GTs are terrible looking.
Looks ugly...A7 any day
Yan Lee my lawnmower looks better than A7
