2023 BMW M4 Competition xDrive

The G82 M4 Competition in xDrive form pairs the 503 bhp twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six with an eight-speed Steptronic automatic and all-wheel drive. The result is a car that puts its power down far more securely than the rear-drive version, and it is the more usable of the two year-round. This 2023 example is finished in Toronto Red over black Full Merino leather, and has covered just 3,399 miles.

The options list is more considered than most. M Carbon bucket seats with memory settings sit alongside M Carbon exterior styling, and the car also has the Ultimate Package, a heated steering wheel and forged M Double Spoke wheels (style 826) in bicolour black. They measure 19 inches at the front and 20 at the rear, as is usual on the M4. Parking Assistant Plus brings the 360-degree camera view and front and rear sensors, and a drive recorder is also fitted.

With 649 lb-ft of torque and a quoted 0-62 mph time of 3.5 seconds, this is a seriously quick road car. The 155 mph top speed shown is the electronically limited figure. Mileage this low on a car of this age means it has barely been run in, and the carbon seats and forged wheels make it one of the better-specified xDrive Competitions around.
