Part of that has almost certainly got to do with Singapore’s preference for four-door models, which would make us something of a priority market. For all intents and purposes, the 2 GC is essentially a four-door version of the new front-drive-based 1 Series (note: not an elongated version of the rear-drive 2 Series Coupe). And despite the “Coupe” part of its name, there’ll be a good chunk of local buyers who see this as the cheapest entry into a new BMW “sedan”, similar to its arch-rival, Mercedes-Benz’s CLA when it first arrived seven years ago.

Every Das WeltAuto vehicle receives a stringent 115-point inspection, one of the most extensive we’ve come across for pre-owned programmes. We are also pleased to discover that Das WeltAuto accepts only used vehicles with an excellent, accident-free servicing record. With the assurance of 100% genuine parts when it comes to parts replacement and a minimum 12 months warranty, customers can be confident that their Das WeltAuto pride is bona fide!
