Flying Colours. We love the BMW i8 and AC Schnitzer’s carbon-clad version is even better than the standard machine. AC Schnitzer ACS8 Stunning carbon-clad Geneva show star driven. Flying Colours.

Buying Guide. The BMW E36 M3 might never be lusted after like the E30 but it’s a great drive and offers good value, too. BMW’s misunderstood M Car is still a brilliant everyday classic – buy now before it’s too late! It might never gain the cult status of the E30 but the E36 M3 is still a wonderful machine to drive and with prices on the up now’s the time to buy Words: Bob Harper and Andy Everett.

The original X5 was a great piece of kit and even today they can make a superb used buy… if you buy wisely. Words: Bob Harper and Andy Everett Photography: BMW.
