Following a comprehensive mid-life facelift, the BMW 1 Series remains competitive in the premium family car class, although it's not quite class-leading. Its main strengths are punchy performance and a top-notch interior, but a smaller boot in mild-hybrid version and the loss of an iDrive rotary controller are a shame.

Our recommended trim includes firmer suspension and M Sport styling touches plus 18in alloy wheels and more luxurious seat materials. That's on top of all the infotainment tech you get with entry-level Sport models.
