The BMW 2 SERIES GRAN TOURER (2015-18) 218I 5DR GRAN TOURER 1.5 SS 136 EU6 M SPORT NAVIGATION PLUS 6SPD is a family MPV, rather than an SUV or hatchback. Seven seats and a practical shape place it among people carriers, combining BMW appeal with a sportier M Sport look. On mycarcheck.com, this version has generated 82 checks covering 55 different VINs, offering a useful snapshot of buyer interest. Recorded cars average 67,000 miles and around 8,000 miles a year, with about 1.5 previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £11,400, though condition, history and local demand affect resale prices. With its 136hp petrol engine, six-speed manual gearbox, navigation and stop-start technology, the 218i suits school runs, commuting and family trips, especially for buyers needing occasional extra seats. It offers a more engaging, upmarket alternative to mainstream people carriers such as the Ford Grand C-MAX, while balancing space, comfort and usability.
