BMW CAR INSURANCE

BMW, or Bavarian Motor Works, began as a manufacturer of aircraft engines during World War 1 when they gained a reputation for reliability and performance. They went on to build their first motorcycle in 1923 and then in 1928 their fist car was a licensed version of the Austin 7. Strange to think that without Austin (who BMW later bought as part of Rover) we would have no BMW 3-series. Ever since their start in life they have kept their badge as a stylised propellor in blue and white.

Throughout their history BMW have been associated with motorsport, first with their motorcycles - a 134 mph world speed record in 1929 and a TT win in 1939, and more recently with their cars, a 1999 win at LeMans and since 2000 running a formula 1 team with Williams. The range of cars is built upon this sporting heritage, with BMW being unusual in building only rear-wheel drive cars (for sportier handling) apart from their off-roaders, and always aiming for perfect 50/50 weight distribution.

The modern range starts with their new 1-series, going through the executive saloons of the 3, 5, and 7 series, with a 6-series coupe, the off-road X-series, and convertible Z-series making for a slightly confused naming strategy on an anything but confused range of sporty cars. With the performance and desirability of BMWs insurance can be an issue for the younger driver, as the average buyer of a new BMW is 49 years old it's the secondhand buyer on a lower budget who is facing a large insurance bill.
