Description

Enjoyable to drive and economical, this 2011 BMW 1 Series 116d Sport brings BMW’s poised handling and a willing diesel engine together with a slick six-speed manual gearbox. The chassis feels composed on A-roads and town streets alike, with accurate steering and a comfortable ride that suits both brisk runs and relaxed daily driving.

Practical and well-proportioned, the five-door hatch offers usable rear space, folding seats and a sensible boot for weekend errands or commuting. The cabin balances a sporty feel with everyday comfort, and the car benefits from low road tax and reassuring service history — a tidy, usable BMW for daily use.
