BMW 1 Series buying guide

What types of used BMW 1 Series cars are there?

The BMW 1 Series range covers a whole lot of bases – you can choose from a massive number of models in a sporty hatchback style, each one with its unique touches.

Popular BMW 1 Series trims

There are a few different trim levels on offer. The whole range is beautifully styled with high-quality touches, and they’re hugely enjoyable to drive.

> BMW 1 Series SE – the entry-level SE model with BMW’s live cockpit and nine-inch infotainment display

> BMW 1 Series M Sport – the M Sport range-topper and fan-favourite with a sporty, menacing feel

> BMW 1 Series 128ti – unique styling from the 12 8ti, feels much like an M Sport

BMW 1 Series history

The BMW 1 Series first appeared in 2004 and is the baby of the range, offering a first step into BMW ownership.

> First-generation BMW 1 Series (2004 – 2013) - known as the ‘E8x’ range with four different body styles and only rear-wheel drive

> Second-generation BMW 1 Series (2011 – 2019) - only hatchbacks on offer in the range known as ‘F20’

> Third-generation BMW 1 Series (2019 – present) - known as the ‘F40’ line-up, you can now nab all-wheel drive

BMW 1 Series body shapes

> BMW 1 Series three-door hatchback

> BMW 1 Series five-door hatchback

> BMW 1 Series coupé - part of the BMW 2 Series range from 2011

> BMW 1 Series convertible – part of the BMW 2 Series range from 2011

What features does the BMW 1 Series have?

It’s no surprise that any BMW 1 Series for sale comes equipped with a whole lot of kit and features. 

Our top-of-the-range models usually get the whole lot thrown in – including front and rear parking sensors, ambient lighting, heated seats and a built-in sat-nav.    

Some models also get Apple CarPlay and Android Auto built in, but there’s usually Bluetooth connectivity for smartphone linking.

We know the practical stuff is just as important, so a 380-litre boot will be appreciated and the cabin itself is also spacious for a sporty hatchback.   

Pair that extra space with the handy ISOFIX car seat points and the BMW 1 Series makes for an impressive small family car.

Is the BMW 1 Series reliable?

Even with all the gorgeous styling, impressive kit and exciting engines, you still want a reliable car. The used BMW 1 Series handles those concerns and boasts a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating, ranking highly on consumer reliability surveys. 

How much does the BMW 1 Series cost to run?

Insurance and other maintenance-related costs may be higher than cheaper cars, but the BMW 1 Series is no costlier to run than something like a Mercedes A-Class. 

What’s more, all its engines are incredibly efficient, so you shouldn’t have to spend too long at the petrol station. 

Who is the BMW 1 Series suitable for?

A used BMW 1 Series is a brilliant car for any motorist who wants something small but doesn’t want to scrimp on style or quality.

It's one of the best luxury models on the small car market, with a huge range of models to choose from. 

A BMW 1 Series for sale has a few rivals including the Audi A3, Mercedes-Benz A-Class and Ford Focus.

The BMW TwinPower Turbo engine in the 1 Series optimises performance by combining turbocharging with direct fuel injection. This technology enhances power delivery, fuel efficiency and responsiveness.
