Great

	Feels good to drive even when the sun's not shining
	Quality controls let you know you're in a prestige car
	Outstanding fuel economy

Gripes

	The initial outlay could stretch your purse a bit too far
	Some interior plastic areas fall short on quality
	The usability of the rear seats is questionable at best

Drive

Great to drive in all conditions, just feels a little heavier than the coupe

Reliability

BMW has a good recent record of reliability and the 1 Series feels solid

Inside

Quality buttons and controls, and plenty of seating adjustment

Space

Uncomfortable rear passenger area contrasts with decent space up front

Safety

Every safety and security aid you could ask for apart from a solid roof

Standards and extras

Not the most expansive equipment list but every model has the essentials
