Things have changed with the BMW 2 Series Coupe, but at the same time, things have stayed the same. You see, traditionally, the 2 Series has shared the same platform of the 1 Series hatchback. However, the latest 1 Series has changed to being front-wheel drive, while for the new 2 Series, BMW wanted to maintain a sporty rear-drive character. That's why it's been given a shortened version of the rear-drive platform found in the 3 Series saloon and 4 Series Coupe, both bigger, more sophisticated, and considerably more expensive cars. That makes the latest 2 Series arguably the best-value car that BMW makes.

It comes in various petrol and diesel forms, but the car featuring in this video is the range-topping M240i, with its 3.0-litre, six-cylinder petrol engine developing 374 horsepower. Under normal circumstances this power is fed to the rear wheels by the eight-speed automatic gearbox, but if wheel slip is detected, power can also be sent to the fronts, making the M240i a VERY rear-biased four-wheel-drive car, one that can see off the 0-62mph dash in just 4.3 seconds.

In this CarGurus UK video review, Rebecca Jackson looks at what else is great about the 2 Series, and finds out just what an impressive overall package it is.
