About this car in Florence
Two weeks in a rented farmhouse, a different village every day, and the roof open whenever the sun is out: that is the holiday the 4 Series Convertible was made for. Its 218 hp 2.0-litre diesel and automatic gearbox reach 100 km/h in 6.5 seconds, but the number that matters here is how rarely you need to refuel between Florence, the Chianti and the coast, and the fact that four seats carry friends or children.
Start with the SR222 Chiantigiana, about 40 km of vineyards from the southern edge of Florence to Greve, Panzano and Castellina; spring and early autumn, when the hills are green or gold, are the moments for the fabric roof to stay down all day. Another morning, the A11 reaches Lucca in under an hour: walk or cycle the Renaissance walls, then continue to the Versilia beaches between Viareggio and Pietrasanta for the afternoon.
From November to April winter tyres are on, so an off-season visit works just as well. Driving into the centre within the viali without a permit triggers a camera fine weeks later, so ask your hotel whether it can register the plate for its garage. Handover at Firenze Peretola, Pisa Galileo Galilei or Santa Maria Novella is agreed when you book, and roadside assistance answers 24/7.

Drives from Florence, the best months and when to book
Suited to this car
- Fiesole (about 8 km from Florence): The climb through San Domenico to Fiesole, with its Roman theatre and the view over the whole of Florence: the shortest outing, perfect at sunset.
- Siena and San Gimignano (about 70 km from Florence): The motorway link to Siena and Piazza del Campo, then the medieval towers of San Gimignano among the Vernaccia vineyards; both old towns are limited traffic zones, so you park outside the walls.
- Bolgheri and the Etruscan Coast (about 140 km from Florence): Towards the sea to the Viale dei Cipressi, five kilometres of cypresses from San Guido to the village of Bolgheri, among the wineries of the great Tuscan reds.
