It's here. The new BMW M3 Touring has been revealed. This is the first time BMW has ever made a proper production Touring version of its M3. The firm celebrates 50 years of its M division this year. What do you think of it?

The new arrival will go on sale in September, ahead of production beginning in November. It will be available exclusively in range-topping Competition xDrive form, taking 503bhp and 479lb ft from BMW’s venerable B58 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged straight six and sending it through an eight-speed automatic gearbox and Active M differential to both axles.

That makes for a 0-62mph time of just 3.6sec and a top speed of up to 174mph with the optional M Driver’s package – figures that just surpass the outgoingestate and are sure to make the M3 Touring a fierce rival for that car’s plug-in hybrid replacement, which is due in 2023 . It is also only slightly slower off the mark than the four-wheel-drive M3 Competition Saloon, despite the added weight of its extended bodywork, which, says BMW, endows the Touring with “variability and generosity in terms of transport capacities for eventful everyday mobility and fast-paced travel activities”.

Now normal very busy looks & BMW’s typically huge over hangs front & rear. Such a shame it’s SO fugly as the M3 Touring in principle is such a winner. Whatever happened to the adage “…if it looks right, chances are it is right!” ⁉️
