Small/powerful, no additional room. High price for safety/quality.
With the added sports package, the small-ish car has all the power it needs to accelerate down the highways of California! I absolutely loved the car, maybe because it is my first. I initially wanted an SUV, but the size of the car made it a great first car to have for easier parallel parking on the streets and it is not as flashy as other models to have to worry about burglary etc. My family maintains purchasing a German brand because of the credibility of its historic brands, reliability of the car and parts quality as well as service. Being a couple gives the extra room for the driver and passenger but I can imagine it being quite uncomfortable for the ones sitting in the backseat and the doors are heavier to open and close. Another word on size is that the trunk is not spacious and can possibly fit 1 medium size suitcase or 2 carry ons and other smaller bags. So while this car is the perfect first car for me still being in school, I would imagine working professionals and older would prefer a larger car. Definitely not suited for families.

Very Stylish. Extremely Great Handling. Fun to drive.

My car is a convertible so I love riding with the top down.
I love my car! I haven't had any problems with it that do not generally happen with age and all have been repaired locally. The heated seats and steering wheel are by far my favorite and the car rides smoothly. This car has spoiled me for other cars, the downside is repairs, when they do happen are costly, oil changes are expensive and so are the tires. But the car is amazing.

My BMW 2010 1 series 128i services,problems.
I bought a new 128i coupe/sport package April 2010. I love the car but I have been issues and wanted to see if they were common. The first thing that happened was the reflector bar on the rear crackled and they said oh yeah you'll have that with a BMW. I had problems with the radio it had to be reset.

It is great and I love it to pieces. It is a light blue.
It is awesome. It runs smoothly. The only problems that I have had since I got it was I locked my keys in the car. Other than that it is fantastic. I have only had this vehicle for a few months now, but it is absolutely splendid. I cannot wait to recommend my friends in getting one for themselves. I hope more people will show this brand of cars a lot of love.

An excellent job with my car and I love your model with its attached work body.
An excellent job with my car and I love your model with its attached work body, I like your mileage work well for driver comfort and finding the spare parts is very easy, distinctive is one of the best models for the community car of the united states of America.

An interesting detail about my car is that it is blue. I wanted a black car.
My car sucks majorly because it is expensive and does not go fast. The main problem is that it is blue when I want it to be black, and I hate that it has a power steering problem that makes it hard to turn the wheel. The plus-side of having a BMW is that I get to call it a 'Beemer' and feel really cool about driving it around the town.

It's very nice for families and can pick up the children very well.
It's very roomy, however, it doesn't quite run correctly after all the mileage I've got.

Slick, small and beautiful.
I like how small it is since I drive it in the city and street parking is scarce. I love how it looks slick and sporty. I do not love the steering wheel due to the fact it is difficult to operate. Unlike my old car, it does not have camera for easier parking.

It has super low mileage.
Things seem to always go wrong. They repairs are always very expensive. I like my car, but it has caused me many headaches. Most of the service advisors at BMW are untrustworthy. I found someone else' glasses in my car once. Gross.

2010 BMW great fast car just not reliable with transmission.
The car is nice, but it rusted very quick. The engine had a good run but the transmission had issues from day one. I like BMW as the cars go forever and I have had this since new and I would by another 1 anytime. Get a great car and they take care of it.
BMW 1 Series Models
Models also known as Trim Levels, are used to identify a vehicle's level of equipment or special features.
I've had this car since new (2010) and used it as a commuter car in Toronto, Canada. It runs perfectly but I had the following repairs done: - replaced the radio as it was making weird, whistling noises :) and the A/C evaporator, some gaskets. Other than that I'll have to replace the catalytic converter - road salt is a problem here - and I had some issues with the front headlights harnesses. Other than that just regular maintenance: shocks at 180K kms, induction coils and spark plugs every 100K kms, brakes and tires as needed. The car appears to use more oil now if driven hard, so I keep an eye on this. But I still think it's a 5 star car!
