Looming hundreds of feet up in Munich's skyline is BMW's headquarters, a vast and impressive building designed to look like four engine cylinders - the configuration that drove much of the brand's early success. BMW has come a long way since 1927, when it produced its first car, the Dixi, shortly to be renamed the BMW 3/15. In 2022, it was awarded 'Best Manufacturer' at the AutoCar Britain's Best Car Awards, and the same year, it triumphed at the WhatCar? Awards, winning more accolades than any other brand. The M5 special edition, celebrating 20 years of BMW motorsport, is one of the rarest M automobiles in the world. See how BMW's maintenance prices compare to Audi and Mercedes in this guide.

Your car's brake system is complex, consisting of pads, discs, callipers, brake fluid, ABS, rotors, a master cylinder, brake lines, backing plates and a handbrake. Many of these components wear down until you eventually must replace them.Brake pads usually last between 20,000 and 60,000 miles, while brake discs last roughly 50,000 miles. Frequent harsh braking can considerably reduce the life of your car's brake system.It can be challenging to tell what kind of car brake replacement or repair you need. An ABS fault, for example, will be indicated by a warning light on the dashboard. Alternatively, you might need to book a brake line repair if you notice your car pulling to one side.
