116i BMW

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have been given a 116i BMW to run about in for a couple of days until I collect my new car.  I love it!  The gear change is really slick and the steering is spot on, of course there is no power but it's a great car to drive.  So the 130i would be a belter!
Nae sure about it's looks though...
Anybody else driven one of these?  What did y'all think?

	not a 116, but a 118d and it was 'orrible cheap and nasty interior, silly indicators that didn't work in the expected way, hard riding and it had steering that was a bit too sharp which made it feel nervous at speed - i don't know if it was fitted with runflat tyres oh yeah, and it had looks that only its mother could love

	It's a four door. One cool thing is the ipod connector and USB port as well. I hated both my 3 series' gear change but the 1 is so slick. 6 speed box as well.
