There’s no denying it - modern cars are getting wider & longer!

And this is proving to be a problem for motorists when buying a new car. For example, while cars have increased in size, factors such as car parking spaces have stayed the same - and this could prove problematic for drivers!

To prove this, we’re about to put two cars from the same range together in a series of challenges throughout central London to see just how their sizes have grown, and what sort of problems they may encounter when driving in a city.

For the old car, we’ve got our hands on a 20-year-old E46 BMW M3, and we’re about to compare it to a G82 M4. When it comes to the E46, it’s about 4.5 meters long and 1.8 meters wide.

As for the new M4, it’s about 30cm longer and 10cm wider! This is because it’s had to incorporate a number of factors, such as a stiffer chassis and better suspension, mainly because its 3-litre twin-turbo pumps out around 190hp more than the E46!

So will the modern M4 struggle when driving around London? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

Thanks to instagram.com/m3ooyay for lending us his E46!
