BMW 3 Series Lease
BMW 3 Series Saloon Review
The 3 Series is an award-winning, ever-evolving colossus of a car, one that’s dominated the segment for decades and which shows no sign of letting up.
BMW 3 Series Lease
With a history spanning five decades, BMW describes its 3 Series as a core vehicle fundamental to the entire brand. A facelift in 2024 made it even more tempting, with the latest models arriving with sharpened driving dynamics, an uprated interior and improved powertrains.
Read moreAvailable to lease as either the 3 Series Saloon or 3 Series Touring estate, it’s a car that brings sporting prowess and comfort to the premium midsize class.
Plug-in hybrid versions of the BMW 3 Series are particularly attractive to company car customers, with a 19.5 kWh battery offering a range of up to 63 miles using electricity alone.
Elsewhere in the range you’ll find frugal petrol engines as well as a powerful 3.0-litre unit under the bonnet of the range-topping BMW 3 Series M340i xDrive.
Standard equipment across the range, for both the Saloon and the Touring estate, includes 17-inch alloys, parking sensors at the front and rear, three-zone climate control, and BMW’s ‘Live Cockpit Plus’ digital display integrated into the BMW Curved Display.
If you opt for the mid-level ‘M Sport’ grade, you’ll enjoy dedicated M Sport suspension.
And the latest BMW 3 Series should also prove exceptionally safe, coming as standard with sophisticated tech such as front collision warning with brake intervention and intelligent speed assist.
When it comes to rivals, the Audi A4 is an obvious alternative, while you might also want to consider the Skoda Superb, Alfa Romeo Giulia and the Peugeot 508.

BMW 3 Series Frequently Asked Questions
For years, the BMW 3 Series has been almost a default choice for those looking at premium, mid-sized family cars. There’s more choice on the market today, but the 3 Series remains a fantastic do-everything car, mixing driving fun, efficiency and/or performance and a premium feel with a wide choice of models and decent practicality.
You can choose between saloon or estate models, and there’s petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid power on offer.
The 3 Series range starts with the relatively relaxed and efficient models and goes all the way up to high-tech plug-in hybrid models and the hugely powerful M3 Competition. With a broad choice of trim levels in most models, that means monthly lease rates vary dramatically.
But one thing stays the same; because Select Car Leasing has market-leading links to the automotive industry, you can be confident that we’ll be able to offer you the UK’s most competitive rates, and plenty of special offers. Have a look at the full list of BMW 3 Series lease deals to see which one best suits you.
The 3 Series has always been a brilliant all-rounder, offering premium levels of comfort, performance and technology with family practicality, but without breaking the bank. Choose between the four-door saloon model or the estate Touring, which has a huge boot. If you want an efficient diesel or a zingy petrol engine then BMW has you covered, while the plug-in hybrid model promises zero-emission driving for more than 40 miles per charge. Then there’s the massively powerful, motorsport-derived M3 Competition, which is at home on a race track as it is on the road.
Independent safety organisation Euro NCAP tested the BMW 3 Series in 2019 and gave it the maximum five-star score. All models come loaded with some of the latest high-tech safety kit to help you avoid an accident and keep you safe if the worst happens. All models serve as family cars, so there’s plenty of space for adults and kids in the back, and a good-sized boot too. The boot in the Touring estate model is particularly large, which can be a huge bonus for families with seemingly endless child accessories.
Once you’ve decided whether you want a saloon or estate, you’ll need to pick a trim level. These start with the reasonably-specced SE Pro and then go up to the sporty M Sport and M Sport Pro Edition, which add a zippier driving experience and a more aggressive exterior look. Alternatively, the Sport Pro model keeps some dynamism to the 3 Series but with more of a comfort focus. Then there are the M Models, which are more performance-focused, and the hugely powerful, very fast M3 Competition Saloon at the top of the 3 Series range.

Jon was excellent throughout the process, and really worked hard for me. There was a small price discrepancy, as the “in stock deal” on the website only indicated the price for a base model without any additional options, which was not actually possible to order - which I felt was a little misleading. However, Jon worked up a deal I was happy with, and communicated very well throughout the process - including following up with some issues after delivery. I will definitely use again.
Yeh, good service a bit of headache filling forms couple of times but turn around was very good and with the maintenance cover it’s peace of mind.
What's great: I'm now driving a lovely Lexus at a far more affordable price than I could find elsewhere. My contract includes a full maintenance deal which isn't always available with other providers. The sales process and arranging the finance was a good experience, with lots of support from Dave. Thanks Dave! BUT ... Once the contract had been agreed, communication was terrible. I was told that I would get access to the portal (which is the only way to track progress) 'shortly': it took 2 weeks and multiple phone calls and emails (initiated by me)to gain access. Promises to phone me back were not met. In the end, Dave sorted it out. Thanks Dave. The portal looked promising as it appeared that I could track my car's journey from the factory in Japan to delivery. However, apart from me uploading identity documents to it (not acknowledged until I got in contact), the portal did not change except to put my expected delivery date back a month (no explanation). Then out of the blue, the Lexus dealership phoned me to say that my car was ready for collection. This was surprising as the portal located the car in Japan, and gave me a bit of a dilemma as I needed to get rid of my current car at very short notice (anyone looking for an Audi Q2?). Nothing from Select Car until I contacted them to say where the car was. Their failure to contact me was apparently the Lexus dealership's fault in some way ... which I find hard to believe to be honest. I made the decision to collect the car rather than have it delivered, in order to get a proper dealership handover, which I was told was fine. Only nothing happened until I phoned Select Car and was told that I had to arrange collection directly with the dealer. That was news to me, but I did it, and was then sent regular emails informing me that my car was due to be delivered to my house on that date. A few more phone calls followed to sort that out ... Maybe I just had a poor experience. Maybe if you go for a car that is in stock rather than a factory order the process might be smoother. At the end of the day, I did get my car at a good price and within the original time frame, so on reflection I've changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. But it was a frustrating journey which some joined-up communications at Select Car would have made a happier overall experience.
