With this amount of power, these mountains of torque and such brutal acceleration, I could only do a sprint review on this beastly new BMW X3.

Sprint Review: BMW 330i Sport Line
The other day someone alleged that the automobile and internal combustion had reached their peaks. With the help of this brand-new BMW 330i, I would like to strongly disagree.
Lineage: BMW M5
Howling straight six, thundering V8, banshee V10 or fizzing turbochargers… which one’s your favourite M5? NamWheels brings you the ancestry of one of Germany’s best performance sedans.
Tested: 2019 BMW Z4 M40i
Sometimes it’s nice to be part of a minority. Exclusive. Quirky. Whatever you care to label it, there are upsides to staying clear of the herd.
Tested: 2019 BMW X5 xDrive30d M Sport
BMW’s popular X5 was a pioneering SUV, or SAV (Sports Activity Vehicle), as the Bavarians like to call it. This all-new, fourth generation is caringly nicknamed G05 and I recently took one for an extended spin.

The sideways acquisition
Almost exactly 24 years ago, my parents had just taken delivery of a new 4×4 when my best friend from school coaxed his Dad into taking us for a spin in his latest acquisition – a Dakar Yellow E36 BMW M3 Coupé. That spirited June drive through Windhoek left quite an impression and a secret yearning to own an M3.
Tested: 2018 BMW 220i Convertible
The superficial attributes
Good news. People are actually reading my reviews and, more importantly, some of these people appear to be listening to my suggestions. When I dismissed some sporty BMW convertible a few weeks ago and stated that I’d rather drive a weaker version, I honestly didn’t expect it to pitch up so quickly.
Padtoets: 2018 BMW X3 3L Turbodiesel
Ons kamp met die nuwe BMW X3
Om te gaan kamp is vir vele ‘n heerlike naweek aktiwiteit. Kombineer dit met een van die Wes-Kaapse areas wat die meeste reënval per jaar kry en ‘n uitstekende Sportsnuts voertuig en die naweek word skielik ‘n fees. Ons het immers toevallig besluit om juis die naweek te gaan kamp, wat die Wes-Kaapse damme vir die eerste keer in ‘n drie jaar periode, ‘n positiewe rekordsyfer behaal.
