BMW M8 Competition review
With more power and agility, the M8 Competition is a stylish and speedy development from BMW, quickly becoming on of their best vehicles in every measurable way.
Whichever BMW M8 lease you opt for - the two-door Coupe, the Convertible or this exceptional and spacious four-door saloon - you can expect an exhilarating combination of first-class luxury and grin-inducing performance.
All of BMW’s fleet of M8s now come in hot ‘Competition’ form, a trim level once reserved for the very sportiest M cars.
Read moreAnd because it’s a vehicle that goes up against prestigious rivals such as the Audi RS7 and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT, the M8 needs to be performing at the top of its game.
The four-door ‘Gran Coupe’ saloon sits at the pinnacle of BMW’s M car range, ahead of the M5 Competition and M4 Competition.
It promises race-track performance and an exquisite interior. Power - all 625hp of it, as well as 750 Nm of torque - comes from a 4.4 litre V8 M TwinPower Turbo engine married to a 8-Speed M Steptronic gearbox. That potent powertrain means the M8 Coupe can accelerate from 0-62mph in just 3.2 seconds - which is almost supercar quick.
The BMW M8 Gran Coupe saloon also adds a dash more practicality to the mix, thanks to a spacious cabin and a 440 litre boot - above the 420 litres you get with the regular Coupe - which should be perfect for crossing continents with minimum fuss.
Lease customers will enjoy ‘M specific technology’, including Adaptive M suspension, which delivers all-wheel-drive while also retaining the all-important rear-wheel drive emphasis that BMW admirers love so much.
You can also switch between drive variants, such as 4WD, 4WD Sport and 2WD, while also accessing the ‘M MODE’ button that lets you adjust the level of driver assistance should you wish to unleash the car’s wilder side on the racetrack.
Such performance is, as BMW points out, ‘effortless in its application’, cosseted as you are in the state-of-the-art cabin, replete with M Sport seats, two-tone leather with hexagonal quilting and carbon fibre trim.

Malik once again provided excellent service in helping me organise my new Audi Q6, organising a temporary car while the new one was on order and keeping me up to date with the delivery etc
Herbert Caulker was very helpful in securing the vehicle I wanted and looking at all the options that would work for me, he didn’t push and gave me time to consider my options. Once the vehicle was secured I was advised on timescales etc and Herbert remained contactable which was helpful
Select Car Leasing made the experience pain free, Herbert Caulker from Select Car Leasing was knowledgeable, patient and extremely helpful in terms of getting my many quotes across a wide range of vehicles. He was extremely honest and there was no pressure in terms of trying to tie you down. I've been a customer for over 5 years now and this is my 3rd vehicle, brilliant service and brilliant company. Highly recommended!
