I've laid out all the stats for you below, but to truly appreciate this car book at least a couple of hours with your local BMW dealer and take it for a good long drive. Better yet, try to get one for a couple of days to get familiar with it. I enjoyed every minute I spent with mine, and the more I drove it the more I liked it.

Do yourself a favour and take the new 745i out for an extended test drive, you won't be disappointed. (Photo: BMW AG)

After all, you work hard for your money so why not enjoy it!
