The BMW 325ti Compact, despite it's close relationship with
the venerable 3-series saloon and sturdy Germanic styling, was
never really one of BMW's most successful or desirable models.
However the problem with the 325ti Compact really is skin deep.
And if you like the looks then there really is nothing to put
you off. It's a bit of a hidden gem in fact.
The chassis and engine are both of high quality, and the 189
hp offered up by the inline 6-cylinder engine provides enough
pep to keep most people smiling.
The only downsides are the limited space in the back seat, and
percieved budget-BMW image.
