| Estimation Globale |
 |
| Description |
| Recommended. Controversial styling splits opinions, but underneath it the 7 Series is an incredibly advanced luxury saloon. The confusing 'i-Drive' controller requires acclimatisation, though. |

| Contrà´le technique |
| The most radical car that BMW, or any other manufacturer, has made for some time. Styling is a matter of personal preference (or not, as the case may be), but the chassis is unambiguously excellent, combining a smooth ride with responsive, rewarding roadholding. Good interior space and impressive build quality come as standard. Many buttons have been replaced by the 'i-Drive' controller, a small joystick that twiddles and clicks between functions. Most people find it confusing to use, certainly at first. All engines offer excellent performance, although the 760 V12 is a bit OTT unless you're planning trips to the Autobahn. The excellent 730d turbodiesel arrives in the UK in mid 2003, and it's worth waiting for. |
| Points positifs |
- Extreme refinement coupled with fine performance
- Luxurious interior is quiet and roomier than before
- Very sturdily built, well finished, very safe
|
| Points negatifs |
- Bold styling may offend conservative tastes
- High tech i-Drive controls are confusing
- Depreciation likely to be quite steep
