Why buy a used BMW 2 Series?

There are several distinct versions of BMW 2 Series – a sleek coupe if you’re looking for driving thrills but not so much practicality, a four-door saloon (called the 2 Series Gran Coupe) with a bigger boot than the 1 Series hatchback it’s based on, and a pair of people carriers that put versatility and flexibility far above handling. So while you wouldn’t contemplate the 2 Series coupe if you’ve got a growing family, the broadness of the 2 Series lineup means there’s something to suit a wide cross-section of people – all with the tech and posh materials that BMW is known for.

Popular BMW 2 Series trims for sale at Motorpoint

Regardless of the body style, the M Sport package is one of the most commonly available trim levels for the 2 Series. This adds bigger wheels, sharper bumpers and sporty interior accents. Elsewhere, the Sport trim gives you the must-have equipment and a more streamlined appearance, while the coupe and Gran Coupe both get a fast version – confusingly, it’s the M235i for the four-door Gran Coupe and M240i for the two-door model. Meanwhile, the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer MPV is available in a Luxury trim – highlighting that this BMW isn’t really aimed at driving enthusiasts.

Owning a used BMW 2 Series

The majority of used BMW 2 Series cars come with a petrol engine, which is no bad thing – the 218i is perky and decently economical, capable of well over 40mpg regardless of the body style you’re picking. Diesel engines are rare but are well worth hunting out if the majority of your miles will be on a motorway, where up to 60mpg is achievable. BMW’s three-year warranty isn’t much to shout about, so opting for an extended warranty helps keep you protected if anything does go wrong down the line.
