New 1 Series

Post by TitanTim » Tue May 28, 2019 10:58 pm

I do like the interior though which is a big step up and more in keeping with the higher up the range models. If only they had kept the 6 cyl :(

The only thing I know is BMW will have ensured it handles much better than the outgoing model which always had a black mark against it, but then when was tail happiness not fun :)

Well to be fair BMW do know how to make a FWD car handle well - Mrs Tidy had an R50 Mini One followed by an R56 Cooper and they were great to drive.

I just like RWD!

As above not good BMW are producing some terrible looking cars these days and I really don't like the Xmas Cracker Moustache front grills on the new 3 series :thumbsdown:

Whilst I know the M140i is not everyones cup of tea, I ran one as my daily for 18 months and the 6 cylinder engine is sweet, incredibly responsive and surprised quite a few people.
