Hi Guys, I'm new here, but have owned Beemers for over twenty years. I work for a car hire company and get to drive everything from the Chevrolet Matiz to E class Mercs, but there aint no substitute for a BMW. I've tried the rest, and I drive the best. I noticed that a gent called 'Horsetan' has called the 1 series a Nissan Almera. Well, after as I said, twenty odd years of superb 3 series motors, I've just bought a 120d, and it is NO Almera, trust me. IT IS AWESOME ! And it's my first 4 pot motor, but I still love it. So does my mate, and he has a 328 coupe, and he struggled to pull away from me. No, don't knock it guys, it's a great motor well worthy of the BMW badge.

I put a Lexus IS 200SE in part exchange for a 1 series 116i Sport and it is a great car. As for how it looks, beauty is in the eyes of beholder!

There you go Horsetan, Post in haste, repent at leisure!
I personally think we are all a bit biased, some owners of new BMs dont understand those of us with '80s cars, and nor do those who own '70s kit for that matter, and I personally don't like the newest cars from almost any series (except the Z4 for some reason), but I guess they will grow on me.
Still, lively debate is surely why we keep coming back to these forums, other than the excellent technical advice of course!

Judging by your photo Peter, it's pipe and slippers time for you. (j/k) 
As for 1 series, I've seen dozens in York - and i actualy quite like them, even parked next to one at the supermarket amd it was about the same size as my compact. Also saw one being driven in a spirited way the other day round a roundabout, and I must say they corner realy well.

Just a suggestion (which the few X drivers and 8 series drivers will probably disagree with) but why not just have an 'others' forum. Its more than likely that the combined amount of threads for all three will still be very small.
BMW car magazine just did a tidy up to get rid of their 1 series forum and a few others, and its much handier to navigate, and slightly easier on us for download times.

In many ways I'm inclined to agree with Ken above.
After requests, I recently added two new forums and am waiting for
something to go in them. However, I suspect that like the X forum they
will be quiet forums.
