The BMW 1-Series is now one of the most popular cars in the
UK. Big Motoring World have plenty of in
our showroom, and we review this year’s model.
New model
The model was due a facelift this year, but sensibly the
manufacturer has just slightly touched up the previous model – one of the
nation’s favourites – for the new BMW 1-Series 116d ED Plus.
BMW decided just to give it a few tweaks on the exterior –
revamped lights at the front and rear, a lower apron at the front and a
slightly reshaped kidney grille. Inside, it is as well finished as ever, with
high gloss black, brushed aluminium and contrasting colours.
Efficient engine
There are four petrol engines to choose from; two 1.6-litres
upgraded from previous generations, a 2.0-litre and the rather amazing
3.0-litre that powers the M135i. Alternately, there are five options on diesel
engines including the amazing 1.5-litre in the BMW 116d ED Plus.
The ED stands for Efficient Dynamics – it produces an
average 83.1mpg and a mere 89g/km of Co2 emissions which means efficiency is on
point once again. With plenty of punch, the efficiency does not take away the
performance and it has a starting price of just over £22,000 for the three-door
model. In our showroom, we have second-hand
BMW 1-Series available from around £6,000.
Other Features
The sat nav comes with free map updates for the first three
years, with internet connections inbuilt meaning you can pack it full of
whatever technology you require. It’s got real-time traffic information and a
library of 25 million songs, so whatever your driving style you are sure to be
cruising in comfort. Safety is paramount
and has had an upgrade too. There are more sensors on the car and a few other
additional safety features.
