Thanks for watching!
Great review

Nice review! Looks cozy and handsome car👏
Thanks! It is, the design is weirdly growing on me!
Great 👍 review ! This is your entry level BMW based on the Mini . CHEERS 🍻
Anytime Andre! It sure is, very decent entry level car. Cheers to you too!
Buying this in 2023 👍🏽
Nice work!

Got one on the way
Same colour manual. Hopefully here by end of november
Exciting! Congrats on the new purchase!
congratulations mate
So how do you like it, I presume you have had it for while now ?
Congratulations I test drove it- well suited to driving in suburban Australia
Smart choice - well done
When you hit the gas in ecopro and comfort mode what was the reaction of the car ? My previous car was 116i and im wanting to change to 218 i. Thanks
It realises that it wants to take off, but it's just a tad slower to react. In sport mode the throttle is much more responsive. Hope this helps!
Oh man I actually like the exterior of this 2 series. I'm torn between this and A-class sedan!!
That’s a tough choice!! It does look really good doesn’t it, and stands out so nicely!
I was torn between the 220i and the Merc A200 sedan. Got the BMW - it's more fun to drive and everyone seems to have a Merc - the 2 series definitely stands out 🤗
"everyone seems to have a Merc"
Oh really ?
You and I both.. Ive never had a bmw and I'm slowly falling for this one
What have you decided? I'm in that dilemma at the moment. Bmw 2 series 118 m kit or the cla. Such a hard choice, can't make my mind up
between a this new 218i M sport or a 5k km demo car a250 amg sport, which one would you choose? Both the same year.
The A250 offers 165kW of power and 350Nm of torque. This is a huge increase compared to the 218i. If power/torque are a consideration, then the A250 prevails (0-100kmh is 6.2 seconds in the Mercedes, vs. 8.7 in the BMW). They both have incredible interiors, M Sport and AMG Sport, this is more of a personal preference if you prefer M or AMG design. The 218i would feel a tiny bit roomier, but nothing too noticeable. The main selling factor is the engine difference, where the A250 leads significantly. The rest is quite similar and more of a personal preference. Both feel great to drive either way!
Top car! ♥️🔥😍
She goes alright!
Great video mate, I'm looking at this car because I can get it at £200 a month on a lease, do you think that's a deal worth taking on this car? It would be the 2021 model is there a difference between this car and the 2021 model do you know?
Thanks mate! So for 2021, instead of just the 218i and M235i, BMW is adding the 220i (in Australia) and the 228i (overseas). 2021 models receive SiriusXM satellite radio as standard, and Android Auto compatibility is finally on the spec sheet. The once optional 10.3-inch infotainment and gauge-cluster screens are now standard, same goes for the navigation system with real-time traffic updates. Plus, the new Driver Assistance package provides adaptive cruise control and an automatic parking feature. Not huge updates, but if these are things valuable to you, then it might be worthwhile. I know the whole leasing thing is a big thing in the UK/US, but not so much here in Australia. What do comparable leases get you for £200?
@@TalkingTorque Thanks for such a quick reply mate, the £200 price is usually what you pay for the standard model hatchbacks like Golf 1.5 TSI and Audi A3 sportback 35 TFSI 150.
Something like an A class hatchback is actually more expensive than £200 the A class 180 1.3 SE is £230 a month.
What do you think about the deal compared to those other cars? I was looking at a Golf before I seen this offer on the 2 series
Happy to help Shaun! If we're sticking to the £200 budget, and there's no chance of getting an A200 or A250, then the 2 Series is a great option. The Golf is entry level and a very common car - in other words, nothing special. If that's what you're after, then no problems with that. But the 2 Series just stands out with it's shape and design, and the coupe look is much more aggressive/adult-like versus the hatchback of a Golf. It's personal preference though! If you prefer VW/Audi, then they are still great options nonetheless.
@@TalkingTorque yeah that was my line of thinking nothing wrong with hatchbacks but I really like the look of the BM I think that's what I would go for, the A200 is about £300 a month right now as prices can vary with whatever deal is on at that moment so considering I think the 2 series is the best car I'm going to get for the money.
Thanks so much for the advice mate it really helps 👍
Absolutely on the right track, and that would be my decision but I don't want to sway you if you have personal preferences. A200 way too expensive, so it seems like the 2 Series is an awesome option for what you're getting! Happy to help mate - all the best with the purchase! 🙌
Does the 2 series have the 3d panoramic camera?
Don't believe the Gran Coupe does, checkout our full tech review: czcams.com/video/1nV0vwm081c/video.html
looks a lot quicker than it really is ... haha and looks more premium than it really is!
Looks can be deceiving! But a great way to get into a quick looking, premium looking beamer for a reasonable price!
@@TalkingTorque ...image over substance,....no thanks, hard pass.
Buy this car or the i220? Really hard to choose
If your budget can take it, the 220i has more power and is quicker, otherwise the 218i is still great
@@TalkingTorque you mean the maintenance costs or?
@@wouter7777 no sorry the purchase price, I think it's $3000 difference (in Australia), but for me that's worth it
@@TalkingTorque Okey thanks mate, live in Belgium so the price difference is a bit higher but this helps a lot
@@wouter7777 no worries happy to help, all the best with the purchase!
Just ordered one from Showroom 3 months wait so not
218i Gran coupe 18inch wheels an snapper rocks blue
🚘☺️😊
Nice work, congrats!
you can get an m2 for cheaper🤣
Haha seen a few M2’s lingering around the 60k mark with a fair few km’s, but people want brand new cars I guess! Although yes, M2 superior haha
Lol one car I’d never ever buy in my entire life, unless they selling it for 10k brand new loool, thing gotta be the slowest car ever! 😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️
FILTER THE NUMBERPLAYE
OKAY! Haha mate it’s a press car from BMW head office, doesn’t matter if people know the plate
@@TalkingTorque Woah they let you get a press car from the BMW HEAD OFFICE! how Many subs do u even have
3 cylinder 🥴🥴
Get used to it sadly! Buttt Toyota made the GR Yaris a 3-cylinder and that's insanity..
Not kilo wats man its always BHP 🤦♂️who even says kw
Haha! Americans are not going to like this, but the metric system rocks 💪🏼
Kw just makes sense and is logical in every way, scientifically, mathematically, it just works. Bhp sounds cool, but that’s about it haha
"Who says kw ?" every car review in Australia . It's how a car's power is measured here
