BMW 3 Series road tax questions
What 12-month tax figures are recorded for a BMW 3 Series?

The table lists 1,434 recorded variants, split across pages of 50 where there are more than 50.
Which 3 Series years are included?
These road tax records cover 1982–2025.
What is the average recorded BMW 3 Series tax figure for 2025 variants?
The average recorded 12-month figure for variants built in 2025 is £195. It comes from the specification record. Older and newer years can differ, and it is not necessarily the amount payable now.
