I'm sure the best 1er - regarding driving dynamics - will definitely be the one with I4 turbo petrol engine. Great power, great torque, and not too nose heavy.
135i is still not a pure enthusiast's car - it's a mass market product. The tii version & other sport versions will be more hardcore. |
yes bmw is all about big engines, but in the 1er the smaller S4 would help is dynamics alot. The 135i is just too heavy, almost 3400lbs, and that twin turbo is good but not perfect...i would like to see the same tech the 35i as, in a 20i making 250/275hp
