(the car i have now is a 525d touring ) The 120d is really amazing to drive. everything is working fine, the seat position, the pedals are well balanced, the gearshift is accurate and then there's that engine, pulling from as low as 1000rpm untill 4500. I like the 5er touring i have now butt the 400kg less weight makes suchs a difference. Simply one of the best cars i have ever driven. And then there's a fuel consumption of a normaly boring car. As a daily driver this is almost as good as a 911 who will cost you 10 times the money.

No competition for the 1er and very happy that BMW is still making a rwd car in this segment. My 120d is ordered, can't wait.
Well said, couldn't agree more.
