I got this car as my second car but it's the new model with the orange seats, been driving it for 4 months and everytime I get inside my car I fall in love all over again.
Nice punchy review. I hired this from Enterprise (Compact elite range) and it was extremely comfortable, and quiet - and handled beautifully, at high speeds.
What a great review. Can I ask, does this particular model have a 360 camera? Most new cars and SUV's from Nissan, Kia etc have those on their mid level cars. I was wondering whether to get this BMW or those others with 360 camera. Thanks
Recently bought bmw f40 120 i m sport. The car has no lane departure features and also no Intelligent Safety button. All safety must be as standard features, don't understand BMW's market strategy.
Great video mate big like ! What’s your opinion as buying for first car ? Really like the 1.5 liter 136 hp engine on it . Should I go for it or instead pick Kia Xceed 1.6 liter 160hp engine ?
@@shollysgarage this is the only man onRUclips complains about the clarity on the infotainment system is saying Mercedes is better it’s not it’s nicer granted check out other reviews where it’s abundant the 1 series has the best infotainment system in its class (not the nicest where some people seem to be getting mixed up
Great video mate. I have one question regarding the molding on the rear door where the ambient lighting should be, I noticed that there is no molding and I would like to ask if there is still ambient light without that molding or it is not there at all at the back because I want to buy new 116i 110 horse power and when I want to put the option for ambient lighting in the configurator, there is no molding at all where it lights up, I also saw that on slightly older versions of this new model they have lighting and that molding. And I would just like to ask you if the ambient lighting has been removed to newer versions, thanks!
@@EuRoNiX44 yeah pretty annoyed - just got mine and didn’t realise this option had been quietly removed. Small detail but knowing I have a newer car with lesser features is annoying
@@kdot2321 Yeah, they unfortunately did something similar at Mercedes with the a class, removing the ambient lighting at the middle console as well as below the front seats which could be seen as a rear passenger, but don’t be upset, congrats and enjoy your new ride 🙌🏻
I have a 20 plate in red with the ambient lighting in the back. Just changed it today for a 22 plate in Storm Bay(!) Collect it next week, this had me checking the dealerships video. Phew my new one still has the lighting. If anyone can explain the deleted HK sound system I'd be grateful 😊

Feels the same in my 120i ;)

Thank you 🙏
Now that's what you call a review👌
Thank you!
Ima get this one day
Opinion of the DCT gearbox in heavy traffic and uphill go-stop-go traffic would be much appreciated. Thanks.
They come with a free bottle of water as standard?
Im considering getting a 2008 model not quite the same but I like the older more classic model, epic love this car 🚗
BC - board computer. Cycles through the range, mpg, trip data etc
Thank you
That is my dream car

im also wondering as I currently have nissan Qashqai with 360 cameras
No it dosent and it isnt even an available option you can purchase
Most germans dont even have rear view cam as standard. IIRC bmw and vw both have rear cam as 'optional' in few models like polo, 1 series etc

Oh no. Have the same car like yours and have all of that safety assistance in my car :D

As a first car, insurance on the BMW might be a little pricy. If that’s not an issue, I’d definitely go for the 1 series over the Kia
@@shollysgarage thanks for fast response buddy subbed 💪🏼

I really like this POV drives can u do a Audi q8 ?
Thank you! Have you got one I can use? 😜
@@shollysgarage I wish 😂
Only thing I hate is all that plastic in the interior
I drive this car during my holiday in Baverian
No plastic in sight in my 120i M Sport
My a class 180 from 2019 still has a better interior than this new bmw , where is the ambient light ? They removed or what ?
that's getting a bit old in the tooth.
Merc's interior is a bit like a knacker's caravan or a Christmas tree 😂. I prefer a simpler, more understated interior.
Better in what sense? Looks fancy but the a class interior feels really cheaply made. I’ve sat in my fair few of them
Ambiente light is nice to have but not necessary
❤❤
The exterior looks good but interior looks rubbish
