The BMW 440i Gran Coupe is priced from $99,900 and replaces the 435i Gran Coupe in the 4 Series range, which is itself a spin-off of the 3 Series.

This list price is $20,000 more than the 430i Gran Coupe below it. The 2016 update adds additional equipment including Adaptive M suspension, a heads-up display, a leather dash, harman-kardon stereo, surround-view camera, active cruise control and lane departure warning.

He’s also recently returned to his roots, currently editing Australia's oldest and most prestigious mountain bike magazine, Mountain Biking Australia. Tim lives in Wollongong, NSW, and is married with three double-digit age kids… two of who are learning to drive. One’s already learned to race, with 16-year-old Max helping Tim to build and run his only car – a track-registered Honda Civic EG.
