When the new 7 Series debuted last summer, the same dreams that have dogged the hearts of enthusiasts for decades was renewed. Would a BMW M7 finally be joining the fold? After the launch of the M750i and B7 Alpina, signs pointed to no. But after refusing that they were developing an M2, and then releasing one, we knew that the odds could still be in our favor.

Though it may still be one of the newest rides on the roster, it seems to us at BMW of Birmingham that the 2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e is wasting very little time in making a name for itself.

And among the first to recognize the appeal of this auto is Cars.com critic, Kelsey Mays. His assessment of the X5 xDrive40e is available in the video below:

No doubt this green machine's moneymaker, the drivetrain of the X5 xDrive40e is an absolute delight. Pairing a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor and battery pack, the X5…

Have we at BMW of Birmingham ever met a full-size luxury sedan more sensational, more utterly enchanting than the spanking-new 2016 BMW 7 Series?

Well, the truth is we haven't. This is a four-door that delivers the goods in just about every manner imaginable.

And we think that'll be plainly evident upon watching the video below. Join Auto Trader UK Senior Road Tester, Paul Bond, as he highlights some of the 7 Series' top traits:

Amazing amenities abound in the 7 Series' top-of-the-line model, the 750i xDrive.

Though the 2016 BMW M2 offers design features close to the BMW M235i coupe, it is undeniably evocative of the fabled 1 Series M coupe and even the classic E30 M3.

Which, fortunately enough, are both featured in the global debut video of this high-powered, low-riding, compact new sports coupe. Take a look and see if you can spot them.

If you've been wishing for the close, compact feel of a coupe, with the powerful performance of a coupe, but pricing listed expectedly less than the rest of the M Series lineup, the 2016 BMW M2 might be a…

Our last blog post was all about how the 2015 BMW M3 was front and center of the new action film, Mission: Impossible 5 - Rogue Nation. It wasn't just the 425 horsepower, 406 pound-feet of torque BMW M3 that caught the acting bug, because BMW motorcycles were also heavily featured in the new film, showing its ability to take turns with ease, zip along at high speed, and of course, look stylish all the while.
