The car

About this car in Brussels

Brussels is a commuter's city, with the European Quarter, NATO and the embassies all reached through heavy traffic and a default 30 km/h limit across the region. A large estate with 510 hp might seem out of place, but the M3 Touring behaves like an ordinary BMW at walking pace and keeps its character for the weekend, when Belgium's most interesting roads are an hour or two away.

Go south via Namur and follow the Meuse between limestone cliffs to Dinant, where the citadel rises above the collegiate church; carry on into the Ardennes, and the roads around Spa climb onto the Hautes Fagnes plateau to Signal de Botrange, the highest point in Belgium. All-wheel drive suits those roads well, and snow is common up there in winter. For a quieter Saturday, Ghent and Bruges are half an hour apart and both easy to reach with five on board and the 500-litre boot full.

Register the car online for the Brussels low-emission zone before driving in; it is free, but a fine follows if you forget. The Spa 24 Hours between late June and early July and Formula 1 at Spa-Francorchamps in late July, in the years it is held, fill the Ardennes: book early if those dates are yours. We deliver to Brussels Airport, Brussels South Charleroi, Bruxelles-Midi or your office, as agreed at booking, with insurance and 24/7 assistance included.

  • 510 hp M3 estate, all-wheel drive, 0-100 km/h in 3.6 s
  • Weekends to Dinant, Spa and the Hautes Fagnes
