Okay I’m going to get saying this but let it out lol. The New 1 Series and 2 Series Gran Coupe has really nice road presence. Yes it’s unorthodox for BMW’s to look so different, but this will be a positive indication of where BMW is going. Them being FWD as standard isn’t bad at all for the normal buyer who wants a vehicle with such pedigree and a badge. The cars from BMW that us enthustiasts will want to buy anyway are mostly the M Cars. We will all grow to like them. I’m already fond. Brilliant review as always. Love this channel
Seems to be getting a fair bit of hate, but I really like it. Put the steering wheel on the proper side, and I'll take one. :) Cheers from Vancouver, Canada.
nice review of the car, liked it, I'm in the process of ordering one :) what baffles me is the ending, why an outdoor pool in the UK ? (unless its heated) do you ever use it ? and if you do, is that more than 1-2 days per year in the very peak of the "summer" ? Summer in the UK lol :P
Had one as a courtesy car a few months back and had a ton of fun with it, was thinking of getting one but wasn't too sure, this week I remembered how much I enjoyed driving it so I've purchased one and collect it thursday 😂
Hmm... I'm not sure about open that boot after it has been raining, looks like all the water will dribble into the boot and as for the looks, not keen, seen the hatchback in the flesh must admit it looks better than in pictures 👍
I agree the front end looks a bit better in this video than the press release but that is not saying much. The colour is probably helping as it is still too fussy, the grilles are too big and it looks ill proportioned. My word though, the rear end is as bad as the press images. Looks like it has been in a shunt!
@@BOTBreviews not in terms of what you said. Think the roofline and front end is all wrong. However I'm a lover of old BMW's so wont approve of most things😂😂😂
Pritesh Patel you’re right it’s a weird looking car. To me the belt line is way too high, especially at the back... makes the 19 inch wheels look tiny. Won’t be going to any BMW dealerships any time soon so my mind is unlikely to be changed 😉
Just looks so unappealing to my eyes - dumpy, fussy and ill-proportioned. The Mercedes CLA is simply in another stratosphere for styling - far far classier in every respect.
Designers must have had some sleepless nights with this car - like each night they thought - where can i add more lines, protrusions and extra design cues to make it even uglier
It looks far better in that colour than it does in duller shades. Shame it isn't RWD, 6 cylinder and with a ZF8 gearbox, it would be far more exciting to drive then.
i believe it is actually based on the X2 not 1 series, just compare the design / look of the rear of X2 and this M235 and its virtually the same. Its a a squished down X2, thats why the rear of the car looks out of proportion.
