Overview
BMW's 1 Series might look like yet another small hatchback. It is, and isn?t. For one, it's rear-drive, making it probably the best balanced of its ilk. For another, it doesn?t quite have front-drive packaging advantages. For street cred, and driving pleasure, it delivers, especially in 120d diesel, or 130i petrol form. And although back seat legroom is less than most, there's still five-door hatchback practicality. Base engine is a 100kW/180Nm petrol with six-speed manual or auto transmission. Standard gear includes stability and traction control, six airbags, automatic climate control, 16-inch alloys, trip computer and six-speaker CD audio.
