About the BMW 4 Series F32
Launched in 2013, the F32 4 Series marked BMW's decision to spin off the 3 Series Coupé into its own distinct model line. The 420d was a launch variant, featuring the N47 turbodiesel engine which balanced strong torque with exceptional fuel efficiency. Compared to the contemporary 3 Series saloon, the 4 Series sits lower and wider, offering a more focused driving position and sharper steering response. It remains a popular choice for collectors seeking a modern classic that combines elegant proportions with everyday usability and low running costs.
