I've owned 2 BMW products in the past. I'm due for a new car, but too much technology worries me. When the battery needed replacing on my last BMW the 7 computers that run everything went crazy. Only the engine and ABS computers stayed functioning but everything else lights door locks window lifts stereo climate control gauges, stopping working or malfunctioned. With so many things now computer controlled, there are so many more things susceptible to failure. The 1 series doesn't have iDrive.
