    You are right , I owned a 420i with the automatic gearbox , heated seats and the premium sound system . Unfortunatelly I crashed it and it was written off (not my fault) , tried the newest Mercedes A250 and after 3 months of owning the merc I decided that I need a BMW back so I got a very nice manual M240i . Great review

    As an American watching your videos - it always catches me off guard seeing no reverse camera on your cars. That feature was federally mandated over here a while back

    These are sooooooo much better looking than the new versions with the huge grill. Not only is the grill ugly but there are many other design problems as well. The dashboard is pointed out as much more modern on the new version, but in my opinion more modern is not better, as the screens are a pain to use. Plus they grease up after just one trip, useless. In terms of engine I think the 430 petrol is the best for normal use, enough power but not as thirsty as the 6 cylinder.

    How does this or the 420i gc feel on a country road? Would you recommend a stage 1 for a bit more out of these cars? Amazing review by the way.

    • @ParagonCarsLondon
      @ParagonCarsLondon  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      thanks! The 420i gc is a bit sluggish in its standard form so i’d definitely recommend a remap as it means you can have a lot more fun.

  • @rimmerblues1586
    @rimmerblues1586 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thanks for the vid. I think a lot of people are moving away from diesel so knowing what the 420i is like maybe even more useful, some even have xDrive however the 20i with AWD looks slow on paper but is it still _okay_ ?

    • @ParagonCarsLondon
      @ParagonCarsLondon  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's ok, but it's quite a bit slower. Check out our review of one here th-cam.com/video/avyFTLSDIX0/w-d-xo.html

    I wish there were more cars like these made but from japanese makes. Audi doesnt make Quattro A5s and A7s with manual, BMW did make manual versions of these. There should be whole genre of low seating cars that feel exactly like coupes to drive but are a tiny bit more practical having liftback or even wagon bodystyles. But aside of 4 series, only others i can think of are, CLA/CLS Mercedes cars, Kia Stinger/Genesis GV70 and Arteon, both liftback and shooting brake kinds. Other brands dont really seem to try at all to get into this. It germans and Kia and noone else :/

      @@MrKiingpin I recently find myself looking at Lexus IS200/300 Sportcross. Seems like the closest they ever got to the idea. Though its more in line with e46 3 series sedan and touring sizewise. Its also rear wheel drive.
      They stopped making it after 2 generation though.
      I want to give tjat car a try since i preffer older cars overall.

    Hi. I’m currently after a 4 series, but unsure which model to go for; the 420d or 430d. There’s no difference in insurance for me. I’m wondering if I need a 430d or if a 420d will suffice. I do a lot of miles for work, but they’re all b-roads, some dual carriageways. Occasionally do motorway journeys. I’d appreciate any advice

    • @ParagonCarsLondon
      @ParagonCarsLondon  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The 420d would suffice but i'd go for the 430d if insurance is the same. You'll get similar fuel economy and a lot more power.

      I have a 420d gran coupe and I can hear that very same wind noise drivers front, I can hear it in your video and it’s driving me crazy! I’ve changed the tyres twice and had new bearings and track rods! Does anyone else hear this on their cars? I’ve had it in 5 garages!
