Used 2015 BMW 2 Series Consumer Reviews
4 years in a wonderful car!
i suggest potential buyers shop with dealers that don't have a no haggle price program (aka fixed at MSRP). I sold my 2015 BMW M235i 3 months ago to get a small SUV.

It’s just the perfect size
The most appealing thing about this car is what you get in its compact size. The fact that it has xDrive means you can drive it year round, even in areas that get snow (as long as you have appropriate tires). The “non-Mcar, but M-Sport package” provides sports car styling and the in-line 4 engine has enough hp and torque to give it a sporty feel but it’s not quite a sports car. The small overall size of the car is fantastic - nice and compact but not too small. It’s just the right size if you mostly drive it alone or with 2 people, as the rear seats are small - but it’s still good to be able to carry 4 passengers, if you need to. If buying used or CPO, definitely look for xenon lighting package (this car needs it), heated seats/wheel, and parking distance sensors as the rear windshield is tiny (but at least it’s glass). The one thing no one seems to mention is the small gas tank - at 13.7 gallons, you’ll find yourself filling it up pretty often, despite the fact that it gets pretty decent mileage. Interior is focused on function so it’s pretty sparse. While I wish the screen was integrated into the dash (kind of has the appearance of a small tablet mounted to the dash), it’s functional and intuitive. The base 228i doesn’t come with much, so choose your options carefully or it will add up quickly and out price itself compared to other cars in its class. But I am completely satisfied and hope to keep this car for a long time.

Bought red m235i xdrive in early 2018 cpo from local bmw dealer . It has been great so far. It’s quiet when needed and raucous when want to have fun Never owned bmw before so reliability is to be determined Love the seats, love the performance including acceleration and handling Still going strong after 2+ years and now 40000 miles So far the car is going up good with no problems
