BMW has announced the BMW 316d ES - its most economical 3-Series to date
Car makers are falling over themselves to introduce new models that are more fuel efficient and less polluting than what went before, and this time it’s BMW’s time to play the game with the most economical 3 Series yet – the new BMW 316d ES Saloon.

That puts it in to the £35 a year VED band and makes this the cleanest and most economical 3 Series yet.
