BMW’S M Division has a long and illustrious history of producing some of the best driver’s cars on the planet with the likes of the E30 M3, E46 M3 and the E39 M5.
The recipe is simple: take an already dynamically engaging base, throw in a more powerful engine, mix in upgraded suspension components and add a dash of rorty exhaust noise.
It’s a tried and true formula, one that BMW has now applied to the relatively new 2 Series coupe to produce the first-ever M2 in 2016, but now the baby M car has received a mid-lifecycle update.
Does the most-affordable M car still deliver the thrills and excitement as before, or has the world simply moved beyond what the M2 can offer?
