BMW 1 SERIES (2011-15) 125I 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 SS 218 EU6 M SPORT BUSINESS MEDIA 6SPD
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The BMW 1 SERIES (2011-15) 125I 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 SS 218 EU6 M SPORT BUSINESS MEDIA 6SPD is a sporty, five-door premium hatchback, sitting above mainstream family cars in the UK market. It blends everyday practicality with BMW’s sharper, more engaging image, while the M Sport trim gives it a purposeful look.
Its lively petrol engine and six-speed manual make it appealing to drivers who want brisk, enjoyable journeys, yet the five doors and useful rear seats suit commuting, couples and small families. Business Media equipment adds convenience, and the cabin feels more upmarket than many ordinary hatchbacks. It is less focused on low running costs than smaller, simpler alternatives, so check fuel and insurance costs.
