Even though I am (thank you dear Canon IXUS) currently only modest images of the new car had to be here but they are shown! Of course I will try shortly style even better shots.

So far, I’ve only very briefly and emotionally about the coupe reported, the joy over the new arrival was very big! I wish for the New according to TopGear in the future the “Life Line” and then in monthly intervals over the life of the Coupé report. With the 10 day report on the A5, I have this one already tested, I hope one or the other says this form of visualization of my loading and Entgeisterung too.

So we come to the essential points which I have previously noticed.

Engine and transmission:
As in the demo convinced me of the series six-cylinder at full line. With its 218 horses is always good and can be motorized almost every loose pace respond. Thanks to the automatic speed levels remain low and be nice but you need to look at the power level of the 6 responding machine very quickly and without jerking. Overall, the automatic an excellent job and harmonizes with the 2.5 liter 6-cylinder (no Tue Wed 3l!) Very well.

Suspension:
A little harder than in my memory of the test with exactly this car, well that I did not have 18 “or 19″, but unlike the former projectionist is now quite pleasant. Grooves are well on motorways swallowed, the comfort is significantly higher than the ones. Poor roads also can not smooth the Coupé to iron, the famous Gulli lid is also present in 3 than in other premium Mittelklasslern.

Interior:
The noise level inside is up to 180 km / h and pleasant it does not require necessarily the collected voice to a conversation can be conducted. Also, the enjoyment of classical music succeed without problems. From 180 km / h start, however, significant wind noise to disturb the peace, they obviously come from the frameless side windows. A problem which is probably slightly modified by seals, can solve.

Good processing is one in the series coupe

Overall we feel very well in the coupe, the processing is flawless, the Pearl Point leather works in real life much higher quality than in the photos to see. Overall, the resort also offers satisfactory. Yesterday at IKEA was able to boot even powerful points, two and two poäng matching footstool fit neatly into the boot, just had the upholstery on the back seat. With 440 liters of trunk may also four times in the holidays there will be!
The interiors are the 14.000km, which he has already experienced, not noted.

Seats:
The sport seats with partial leather convince with very good range and excellent lateral support. The back seat could also be formed a little more. A real statement about the comfort I can but only after a real long distance it!

Entertainment:
The lack of iPod or USB interface makes the car through the mp3 compatible 6-fold CD changer competitive. This takes quite a while because the CD until he has read content, after which the title, but clean, and well played. The quality of the speaker series, I would have a class which include sorting the ones I miss in any case (still) not a hi-fi system.
The Navi Business works better than expected, although the route guidance with map is quite pleasant! Here I had to make concessions, but now I have a clean integration of the telephone in the facility. The Bluetooth installation works flawlessly in conjunction with the Apple iPhone, the charging cradle (77 euros) is also doing their service. Until about 160 km / h is the call for both parties well understand. Whether the actual antenna to the vehicle plant is connected, but I venture to doubt, since the signal strength is not really improved.

Body:
A little confusing, but thanks to PDC still manageable. Visually, the 3er coupe at the time of the most beautiful BMW, because in my view, there is no doubt!

3er Coupé – Chocolate page

On my car, only in the smaller stone bonnet beats available. The vehicle by the dealer was carefully prepared. In a brief conversation with the specialist, it emerged that he had the car for the 3M line used and the paint has been sealed. The effect I have seen in the rain yesterday, it drips and drips!

When sunlight is not really so dark!

Consumption:
Well, it was actually to be expected, but little shocked then you know. Although a visit to the Tanke moderate 9.27 l/100km provided, but in city traffic by announcing the BC diabolical 12 l/100km. I think with the winter I will be somewhere around 10 l/100km need for 218 hp and 6-cylinder petrol engine (actually) not bad value!

Conclusion:
So far I am very happy with my choice, I hope it remains so!
