I own this model which I have owned for 3 years it’s a lovely car to look at and drive. The car has done 26000 miles and has full BMW approved service history. The car stopped performing suddenly has been off the road now in garage over a week. Reason Vanos control and timing belt failures in the engine. This is a known manufacturing fault BMW aren’t taking responsibility for. Having been a long standing customer I am so upset I am faced with bills well onto the thousands. Also had to replace the window mechanism which I assume is due to the rimless windows not opening in the cold weather. I’d avoid ubless you want to end up bankrupt.

My husband and I own a 5 series, X3 and now the 228i convertible. This was this most spontaneous purchase ever. We were at a dealer looking at a 911, and I saw this gorgeous gem in Mineral Gray , Black top and interior. It was “Love at first drive”. It’s quick and responsive. And what a value! Nearly half price in just 2 and a half years! Really grips the road, takes corners on a dime. Of course the ride is a little taut, but is not punishing, and the seats are quite comfortable.

I love this car. Fast, comfortable and so fun to drive. Great leg room and nice ride. Was worried that the ride in a car this small would be choppy, but the adaptive suspension smooths it out nicely in Comfort mode. Handling is so effortless and precise. Complaints about back seat room are stupid, it's a tiny sports car! It's basically a roadster. If you want leg room in the back, buy a sedan.
