It's sad how underrated this car is just because it's a FWD BMW. If you want a hatchback that drives well, this is the best there is on the market. The base 120 drives better than a MK8 Golf GTI and has a better chassis. That's not a joke.

Really great review! Have just got this new 1 series and love it so far. Had a 2 series 220i gran coupe before and note you point on the SUV market of which I looked at. Opted for one of these and few days in it’s fun, nippy, mobile and has so much good tech on it. Don’t need much more!

Got one on order that i'm picking up in December. Really excited to get it. Anything you regret not getting option wise? Does it have the Iconic glow grill? Seen a few places where it mentions it and BMW released a video in September showing it but nothing since.

Love this review! Looking at trading in my Audi A3 2013 plate whilst it’s still worth something and using that money as a deposit to a 1 series! I’d go PCP and then trade it in every 4 years. This looks neat, love the dash and impressed they’ve done away with the sat nav updates, that did shock me!

If you’re thinking of doing that please explore a PCH first as you might just save a lot of money. Great car.

Morning Jim, thanks for this review. It comes at a very timely time as I desperately need to get rid of my AudiTT which is an old lady now - a bit like me! It is just that I am not ready for a ‘saloony’ type car. I want something sensible with a bit of a thrill to drive, and comfortable to sit in. My inner self would be happy with another Audi TT but perhaps not the best for a lady who will be an octogenarian next year! Although I love driving mine. I always love your reviews and other videos, so keep them coming. Many thanks.

Hi Jim. What are you thinking about a basic or a standard suspension? With 17/18 inch wheels. Does it deliver more drive comfort?

Nice review jim, love the tech they have packed into the car, but that front is very ugly, I don't like the headlights or the grill where the bars go in 2 different directions. I wonder if people will grow to like it, like the 2020+ 4 series

This car is loaded with options so a lot of things are not standard including the Live Cockpit Professional that would be lovely but you can only get as part of a £2750 option pack. I'd possibly get the cheaper technology pack plus the auto air conditioning(why is that extra?) and Harmon Kardon speakers.

Detailed review Jim, I've just changed my car and it was a toss up between the 1 series and the latest Mercedes A Class. The cars were I were looking at were very closely spect the M sport had less than the AMG line A200 in the basic price and loved the interior more on the A class so went for a 6 mth old A Class which saved me nearly 10k Living it so far.

I’ve had a portimao blue 120 for the last month, coming from a 2022 X3 20 mild hybrid. Prior to that a 335d touring and and M140i before that. My wife has an 2023 A180 and it’s a great car. I was looking to downsize and reduce bills. I’m really happy with 120. A180 drives great and the interior style is brilliant. 120 feels a bit more spacious inside. Both have equally over complicated tech, certainly compared to the brilliant X3 I had. 120 rides a bit better on the m adaptive dampers. Both have great seats (my wife’s has the amg version of BMW’s msport) albeit the 120s are a bit softer and more comfortable. Boot space in the A180 is better and you can actually use the curry hooks. 120 is also great to drive and Goodyear eagle F1 asymmetric 6 are light years better than the awful Conti eco contact tyres on the A180. 120 adaptive leds are better than the A180 standard leds. Wish I’d put the HK audio in the 120, would still have been below £40k. Only because coming from the very quiet x3 to smaller car, there’s a touch on wind noise from the mirrors where the HK speakers would fit. ( had HK on my m140i but not in the x3 or 335). In summary I’m very pleased with car. It’s a lot better than some of the negative reviews I’ve seen going about and is great to drive which is the main thing.

Just as an update you can get a middle model. The Msport M123 and it has the 2 litre 4 cylinder (218 BHP with MHT) and Xdrive as well. Its £3000 more but it is very close the older 128Ti in performance at 6.3 0-60 and has the four wheel drive. The WLTP figure of nearly 48 mpg is another plus. My daughter bought new the last of the F21 118i Msport shadows and the B38 engine in brilliant and it fuel consumption is brilliant, even with her lead foot and impatience mid fourties is easy to attain. This is on the dreaded M4 travelling from Heathrow to Bristol and back. This car has had no faults just service and replacement tyres. Really like the one Series and looking at the 135i as the reviews have been excellent.

The BMW's that I have had in the past have generally used the engine size as the model name like a 325 was 2.5 litre so why not 115 as the model designation rather than 118 or 120 also no manual version will reduce sales as I have the manual 118 M sport so would not want to replace with an auto in the future.

Great review. As the 1 series has evolved (i.e. changing to FWD) to me, it's just gotten better looking. Given that most BMWs are pug ugly, the baby Beemer is now one of their best looking models, especially in M-Sport trim.

Had a few 1 series and may look again. They were always great cars but was disappointed when they reduced the BHP and made them front wheel drive although I must confess I have never driven a FWD. plus I like lots of spec so a new one would be a fortune.

Our current one series 116d was £26k new, it does 60mpg. No diesel not great, we will not be buying another one series. When watching the autofugl channel there are two diesel models, I cannot understand why they are not bringing them to UK? Diesels make more sense…
