Well according to the M division, the M135i has around 30% of its parts that are different to a regular 1 series (as opposed to 70% for a proper M car). So if the 125i is great to drive, I'm hoping that there is a noticeable step up to the 135i.

"So if I were to order a BMW 125i with adaptive M running gear or sports steering, for example, there would be a difference from the set-up of these components as compared to the BMW M135i?

Correct. It is not possible to give a BMW 125i the same characteristics and performance of the BMW M135i by adding special equipment options. Not only the transverse and longitudinal dynamics are different - the entire character of the BMW M135i is distinct."
