This is the new 2017 BMW M240i Coupe and it replaces the much loved M135i. A 3.0 litre straight six cylinder engine produces 335bhp and 369lb ft of torque. That is enough to get the M240i in this manual car from 0-62mph in 4.8 seconds. It will go onto an electronically limited top speed of 155mph. BMW claim 36 MPG combined.

The interior of this 2+2 is well built and full of premium materials. A set of bolstered seats hold you in place whilst technology such as the excellent BMW iDrive infotainment system is at your disposal.

This 2017 BMW M240i ticks a lot of boxes with a great exhaust note and keen handling. It costs from £35,090 and is on sale now.
