  | BMW 130i M Sport Limited Edition Review  Added cool for refreshed 1 Series range - Eric Gallina Performance:   The 130i is a formidable performer with a throaty exhaust note. Engine & Transmission: Six-cylinder is powerful and flexible. Six-speed - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER is smooth and intuitive. Ride & Handling: Very taut chassis and M - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER suspension emphasises sporting intentions, but ride can be harsh over bumps. Fuel Economy: An indicated 22mpg isn't bad, but it isn't exactly frugal. Tactility: Interior surfaces benefit from high grade materials; upgraded - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER switchgear more premium. Appearance: Removing two doors gives the 1 Series a sportier appearance. Interior: Front - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER space is cosy but confined, rear seat space is minimal. Safety: The five-door 1er scores five stars in the Euro NCAP; three-door should be no different. Equipment & Value for Money: £30,300 is certainly not cheap, but all the expensive options are standard kit. - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER Source = The Car Enthusiast |

| Re: BMW 130i M Sport Limited Edition Review Those are the worst rims available for the 1-Series IMHO. |

Sorry, those rims are just ugly IMO. They don't even look sporty. I hate to say it, but those rims look sort of "wannabe sporty" to me. I'd rather have these:   | |

| Re: BMW 130i M Sport Limited Edition Review So far for 'wannabe sporty'  They don't get more sporty than this, they are based on real racing rims  |
