1. Five of the Best Coupes for £30,000
2. Nissan 350Z
3. BMW 3-series Coupe
4. Chrysler Crossfire

It would be easy to forget that the BMW 3-series is also available in coupe format, but that would be foolish thing to do, because the 3-series features one of the best chassis of the coupes listed here. The 3-series saloon and Touring have been superseded already by a completely new car, and this coupe will be replaced later this year, but it is a testament to BMW's know-how that their car is very competitive despite its advancing years.

For thirty thousand of your hard-earned pounds you have most of the 3-series coupe range at your disposal, including 330i petrol and 330d options. Don't turn your nose up at the diesel option either; the 330d outputs a third more torque, if a little less power, but it returns better fuel economy and suffers a lot less company car tax. If you want a stylish, but unassuming coupe that is good to drive and well made, now would be a good time to pick up a bargain at your BMW dealer.
