Multimedia and safety technology: 8/10

It includes BMW’s curved digital display with iDrive 8.5, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, premium audio and over-the-air updates. Safety technology like autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control is available, but because mine is the manual version, it misses out on both emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.

Practicality: 8/10

The M2’s interior is driver-focused with supportive sport seats and high-quality materials. Rear seats are tight, best for short trips, while the 390-litre boot offers decent space for weekend luggage.

Driving: 9/10

The M2 drives with sharp, precise steering and a firm yet composed chassis. The S58 engine delivers strong, immediate power, making it both thrilling on bends and manageable for daily driving.

Running costs: 7/10

The running costs of my BMW M2 G87 have been quite high, fuel economy is around 9.7 L/100 km in normal use and you certainly wouldn’t buy this car for its fuel economy.

Reliability: 10/10

The M2 has been excellent, no major faults or mechanical issues so far.
