Used BMW 425 for sale

The BMW 425d offers a blend of sporty style and practicality. This makes it a strong choice for UK drivers looking for a premium coupe with extra flair.

Used BMW 425

Best known for its dynamic drive and impressive diesel efficiency, it’s comfortable on long journeys. But you can still expect an engaging drive on twisty roads. Part of the 4 Series family launched in 2013, the 425d replaced the old 3 Series coupe and is popular for combining brisk performance with excellent fuel economy. Compared with rivals like the Audi A5 and Mercedes C-Class Coupé, it stands out for its sharper drive and balanced running costs. Inside, it features BMW’s iDrive infotainment, a high-quality cabin, and solid safety equipment. Whether coupe, convertible, or Gran Coupe, it delivers a strong mix of style, comfort and performance.

Pros

  • +Strong and efficient diesel engine
  • +Engaging rear-wheel-drive handling
  • +Comfortable, premium interior

Cons

  • -Rear seat space is tight
  • -Firm feel on larger wheels
  • -Running costs higher than non-premium alternatives
  • What are the key safety features of the BMW 425d?

    The 425d shares its safety setup with the rest of the 4 Series range, including multiple airbags, stability and traction control, ABS and ISOFIX child seat mounts. Parking sensors are common, while higher-spec cars may also feature optional driver aids such as lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.

  • What engine options are available with the BMW 425d?

    All 425d models use a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder twin-turbo diesel producing around 215bhp and strong torque for brisk performance. It sits between the 420d and 430d in the diesel line-up. Most cars are fitted with the smooth eight-speed automatic gearbox, though a manual was available in small numbers.

  • What are the standard technology and infotainment features in the BMW 425d?

    Standard equipment includes dual-zone climate control, DAB radio, Bluetooth, USB and BMW’s iDrive infotainment system with sat-nav. Most cars came with a 6.5-inch screen, while higher trims or options added a larger 8.8-inch display, leather upholstery and upgraded audio systems.

  • What is the fuel consumption of the BMW 425d?

    Official figures suggest around 55mpg combined, with real-world averages typically in the high 40s on longer runs. That makes the 425d a strong mix of performance and efficiency for a premium coupe.

  • What should I check when buying a used BMW 425d?

    Check the service history for regular oil changes and mileage-appropriate maintenance, particularly on the automatic gearbox and diesel engine. Pay attention to warning lights for sensors or electronics and look for uneven tyre wear. For added peace of mind, consider a comprehensive assessment like The AA Vehicle Inspection.

  • Are BMW 425d cars reliable?

    BMW 4 Series models are generally dependable, with most owners reporting a solid mechanical experience. However, occasional electrical issues, mainly with sensors and dashboard displays, have been noted. Timely servicing and attention to warning lights help keep reliability strong.
