SCI-FI WRITER ARTHUR C Clarke foresaw everything from communications satellites to remote working – but he also said we’d have bioengineered monkey servants. Yes, predicting the future is hard, but if we were to have a crack, we’d suggest that this new BMW M2 is likely to be a safe place to put your money.
Why? Well, for starters, it slots in as the most compact car in BMW’s current M performance range, and if you look at the division’s back catalogue, you see that the smaller models tend to be among the most revered; the original M3, the Z3 M Coupé and the 1M Coupé are all bonafide classics.
