And as it"s never one...

And as it"s never one to miss a trick, BMW has responded to this by launching an even more affordable diesel, which will hit showrooms in the UK in April. Offering 115bhp and 280Nm of torque from its 2.0-litre four-cylinder unit, the new 318d is aimed at high-mileage drivers who put fuel economy and low emissions at the top of their wish lists.

The model returns an average of 50.4mpg, and its CO2 rating is only 151g/km - that translates into a tax rating of 16 per cent, which is one of the lowest in the class. The engine also complies with Euro IV emissions rules. BMW claims the newcomer will cover 0-60mph in 10.6 seconds and go on to a 127mph top speed.

Rivalling the two-wheel-drive Jaguar X-Type and the diesel-powered Audi A4, the car will come in both saloon and estate guise. The four-door 318d is available in ES, SE and Sport trim, while the Touring wears SE and Sport badges. Prices start at í‚á£19,995 for the entry-level ES, and rise to í‚á£24,850 for the top-of-the-range Touring Sport model.
