WE SAY: BMW’s latest take on a Gran turisMo is Massively spacious and packs in a feW extra Goodies too. does it solve the iMaGe proBleM though?

There are some things that need fixing and others that are slightly beyond that. With the 6GT, BMW has essentially taken care of a problem that it couldn’t really fix. It still takes a bit of time to get used to, but now it is at the sort of level that the old Panamera used to be at. Long-ish, sleek-ish, but mostly practical without the need for an –ish. Walking up to the 6GT though, is quite alright. It gets a pretty standard BMW face complete with the LED running lamps and kidney grille – more 5-series than 7 though. Walk around and it becomes apparent that the 6GT is big. If you happen to see it in a parking lot, this fact becomes even more apparent. Based on the standard wheelbase of a 7-series and with a fair mix of design cues from the outgoing 5GT and the X6, the 6GT is long with lines that have been sharpened up to make it more coupe-like and less, well, 5GT like. But then again, you may have loved the way that had looked, in which case, I will totally judge you.

IMPRACTICAL YET IRRESISTIBLE

Exactly ten years ago, I took my first international trip. It was to Bahrain, a country of endless desert and skyscrapers, where my aunt and uncle lived. Among their friends and neighbours, one particular gentleman, upon learning I was a budding petrolhead, took an entire day off work to take me around the city’s showrooms to see some “normal” Middle East traffic.
