Used BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe pros and cons
Is a used BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe a good car?
When is a coupe not a coupe? When it’s a 2 Series Gran Coupe, which is BMW’s way of saying ‘we made a 1 Series saloon but we don’t want to call it that.’
Then again, BMW’s not alone here as the 2 Series Gran Coupe’s closest alternative — the Mercedes CLA Coupe — is also really a four-door saloon cosplaying as something sexier.
Inside, the dashboard is absolutely identical to the 1 Series, which is actually a good thing, as the build quality is exceptionally good, and this is definitely the high-point of BMW’s infotainment system with an excellent touchscreen.
The front seats are comfy and usefully adjustable and there’s decent space too, but the back is actually a little more cramped than the 1 Series hatchback as the more aggressive roofline cuts into headroom. Legroom is fine though.
The boot is bigger than that of the 1 Series in terms of sheer volume — 430 litres — but it’s overall less useful because the saloon-style lid means it’s hard to load up bigger items, and you can’t put pets in there at all.
While the M235i is the fastest version, it’s actually the 134hp 218i, with the little three-cylinder engine, that’s the most fun to drive, especially if you get it with a manual gearbox. It might only have a small power output and front-wheel drive, but it’s light, agile, and feels every inch the proper BMW from behind the wheel.
What to look for when buying a used BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe
While it’s not quite as well-made as the brilliantly-solid second-generation BMW 1 Series, the 2 Series Gran Coupe seems to be well-made with few major reported issues. It has been recalled a couple of times, for camshaft problems and airbag replacement, but aside from those it’s reported as being a solidly-built and reliable car. The 2 Series Gran Coupe didn’t appear in the Driver Power Top 50 Cars To Own list, but the mechanically-identical 1 Series did, finishing in 25th place, and garnering an excellent quality and reliability rating.
BMW as a brand finished in 14th place out of 32 manufacturers in the overall Driver Power customer satisfaction table — well ahead Audi and Mercedes — with a relatively low 21% of owners reporting a problem with their car.
