In their own words

So I bought my 2017 118d back in September 2021 from a well known UK dealership network and I admit it was because it was a rear drive hatchback in my price range however, day to day this car is my go to motor it always starts on the button it comes with plenty of features (sat nav, DAB radio, Bluetooth, parking sensors, cruise control) the BMW connected drive is a superb system to operate its easy and intuitive and the car drives a dream even though it’s now at 90k! Fuel economy is superb with me regularly achieving 50mpg and the highest I’ve had is 62 and I haven’t even got to the best bit, the ride. It’s the perfect Balance of firm and comfortable not to mention the seats are very supportive Bad points: the rear seats are quite tight and the boot is on the small side and visibility leaves a bit to be desired so if you do have a family with more than just small kids it may not be the right car for you but anyone else I highly recommend it!
