BMW Z4 2.5si Sport Roadster

In simple terms, it's great fun to drive. The steering is light and responsive; handling is precise and inspires trust... and the engine is smooth and powerful with a tremendous low growl even at gentle speeds. The cabin is a great place to be: Sports M seats are snug, and you'll appreciate the seat heaters in mid-winter. It's a real drivers car.

I've had the car for a couple of months now, and I couldn't be happier. I spend most of my time in central London - and it's a smooth and gentle drive - a solid 27 mpg and a very relaxing place to be. Take it out into the country though, and you have a very different animal. I tried the TT (high cailibre but uninspiring plastic) and the 350Z (an orange tractor) but the BM is a stunning car. You feel like you're in a racing car: great acceleration, glue like qualities, and laser guided steering combine, when pushed, to give you something which is simply primeval. And you can get a 2 year old one for under 15k ... stunning.

I have purchased this car recently so my opinions might be a little biased, but to be consistant in 6 months I will write an updated review. So far I honestly couldn't be happier with the car.

Great Sounding Engine! 6 Cylinder roar.

Smooth Gear Change.

Very light steering and good turning circle for a car with such a huge bonnet, which makes it easy to drive about town.

Very quick automatic roof which can be opened using the remote key.

Very nice driving position. The rear wheel drive make you feel every inch of that 2.5 litre engine!

A great luxury on the car is the 'Hill Assist' it will stop the car from rolling back on a hill after using the footbrake. It means you only ever use your handbrake once the car is parked.
