The best-looking of any 1-Series - the longer tail seems to smooth out the frumpy shape of the hatch. The 135i has well over 300bhp, and you will not fear hot hatches.
The 1-Series shines its brightest on the road, as one would expect from a BMW. While perhaps not quite as dynamic as pricier BMWs, most drivers will likely be very pleased with its responsiveness, quickness and grip in the corners. This is simply a fun and engaging car to drive around town and yet still remains fairly refined when cruising down the highway.
