BMW 3-Series Compact (2001-2004) boot space, practicality and safety
Looking for a different model?
(change model)
Boasts six airbags as standard and a full compliment of electronic safety measures. Puts up a very good fight in the face of thieves who might otherwise find it a very tempting target.
More roomy than it used to be, but rear drive compromises boot capacity somewhat – Rivals generally offer more space in rear and boot.
