2020 BMW 840i Gran Coupe Review

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Is this all the BMW you could ever need?
The BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe appears to match form with function better even than the German manufacturer's flagship models. In this CarGurus UK review Rebecca Jackson tests out the 840i petrol version to see if it might just be the best large car that BMW builds.

    Great review even though this is 2 years ago now ! I bought the 8 Series 840i M Sport (GC) this week - fully loaded with tech and sports packs and for the price, in my opinion great value. I chose it over the Panamera and others. But freaky as it may seem I replaced my Lexus RX 450h F-Sport with it. Performance and overall drive, motorway or city is superb - I can even get a mountian bike in the boot and if needed two more on the roof (using SeaSuckers) so ample space. Getting a 6 foot son in the back is also not as challenging as I thought vs the RX. Lets see how we get on !

    @@raydonferrari1 it is a very good car , I’ve had no problems in the 2 + years I have been driving it and it certainly looks the part . It has the same engine ( 3 litre twin turbo) as the 540i I had before so the mpg is the same at about 24 for a lot of stop start journeys and high twenties for long journeys ,dependant of course on the weight of the foot on the gas pedal. I can recommend the car for reliability and comfort and it’s quick when you want it .

    Chose a last of the line 640d GC over an 840 last year as I preferred the styling but now the 8 series is really growing on me and the value used is crazy. Three year old 840i GCs from a BMW dealer can be had for under 40 grand. There is nothing to match them for the money. Three year old 840i with a warranty or a new Golf Gti🤔No brainier for me!

    EVERY BMW looks good compared to the new 7 series. I've always been able to understand BMW designs, whether or not I liked them, but the 7 series completely eludes me. How some of the best designers in the world looked at that and proclaimed "we nailed it", is a genuine mystery, to me. The interior design of the new 8 isn't as lovely as the 6, but the rest of the car is nearly perfect. A beautiful BMW that I think will age very very well.

    Great solid review. BMW missed the target for me. Disclosure - love the 6 series, own the 6 series. So BMW replaced the 6 series with the 8 series and bumped the price too high for most. Fan of the 7 series but that grill scares me away for now. The slope of the 840i Gran Couple rear looks like a hatchback. Lastly not a fan of the pointed wings of the grill. Overall love the cockpit and the seats look luxuriously refined yet hugging at the same time. Hopefully BMW will learn from the lack of sales and give er some tweaks and give a relief from $100k US.

    Good looking??? Really??? Big Bmw fan, actually drive a six cylinder Bmw and it’s really ODD to hear that it’s a "good looking" one! This new generation 7 series & 6 series (or if you fancy, the 8 series) are fresh and comes loaded with modern gadgets, but the "good looks" went out of the window a LONG TIME AGO. I agree that taste is subjective, so is the styling, but a handsome majority have criticized this series in terms of styling which is not to be confused with the ever growing dimensions of the car.
