I'm thinking of buying one. How is it 2 years later? Any issues?

@@KS-gh7kq hi I bought the 420d grande coupe. The car is ok. But do double check the car before buying. I got mine from a big car supermarket. With 15k. The previous owner had messed with the computer to try n get free apple car play. And it’s costing issues as I cannot rectify a software recall without changing the dash unit. You can usually check for this. If the main idrive screen is not showing the time or if you can’t set the time. Cost me a fortune as only ppl that can fix it is BMW. And they only deal with BMW bought warranty. So the extended warranty I bought was useless. Also had issues with the horn and washers both needed fixing. This is maybe the fact I bought a bad example as my previous 1 series had no issues whatsoever. But overall the car is nice and a head turner. But recommended getting one from a authorised dealer.

@@KS-gh7kq Hi I ended buying a 68 reg 420d Grande Coupe M Sport with 15k on the clock, i had a few issues, mostly because i bought a bad example which i got frame a big chain of car supermarkets. I even bought extended warranty (about that later). The previous owner (plonker) had messed the idrive to try and get free Apple car play this has caused me nothing but trouble as i cant get any recall work down that needs to update the software. I have paid loads to get the computer changed, part has finally arrived, just need to book it in. To spot such computer issues pls look at the Idrive screen if you see no time at top right corner or if time and date doesn't set, please do no buy the car. I had bought extended warranty but the only ppl that will touch this are BMW dealer who do not allow 3rd party warranty's. Other minor issues are the horn and washer jets. these needed fixing. apart from the above The car is nice and a head turner and i like it.. I just bought a bad example, i would recommend getting one from a authorized dealer as any issues they will fix. I've had a 1 series prior to did and that was lovely with no issues. I'm currently toying with the idea of a 128ti as the dealer leant me one during my last visit.

@Trevor Alexanderson no long term effects as long as you don’t clutch dump every 1st gear set off.

they're brilliant, you won't regret it.

Where did you get the tr map done and how much was it? Wana do same to my 420d

dont you need a sport cat to remap 4 series?

it does but it's an early version of it, it just holds the car for 2 seconds whilst you put the car into gear. I'd go with the auto if there's a lot of hills near you.

pop us a message at sales@paragoncarslondon.co.uk and they might be able to source one for you

RWD is more fun and XDrive is more usable in bad weather. I'd say rear wheel drive.

@@ParagonCarsLondon what makes the rwd more fun? Just so you can drift in the wet? Or any other aspects. I want more so to go 90mph on backroads lol

@@daithi154 the car is just more tail happy haha.

@@ParagonCarsLondon ahhh tail happy dont know if i want that on tight wet backroads loool

@@daithi154 depends how confident you are haha.

It certainly does 😏

europe??? why do you talk about the continent and not a specific country. europe is a massive continent.

120d does feel front end heavy yeah but the 420d is definitely a gem. Feels quicker than it is though.
