I've had my BMW 118d SE for 2 years now. In that time i've never had one problem. I have the 5 door which gives you a bit more space. The drive is fantastic. It's nippy, quick and has fantastic control.

I also do a fair amount of miles each week commuting to work, and the drive on the motorway is very smooth.

Fuel consumption is fantastic compared to other cars in its range. The car looks great, looks modern and I believe the 1 Series really hold their value.

The interior is aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. My only negative is the car music system that comes as standard. The sound quality isn't particularly good and I would consider upgrading it.
