Description

The 2018 BMW 1 Series 116d SE Business blends eager diesel performance with composed handling. Its 1.5-litre engine and manual gearbox deliver punchy responses and strong fuel economy, while rear-wheel drive gives assured cornering and engaging steering. With just 54,000 miles this example still feels well preserved and ready for daily use.

Practicality is excellent thanks to a roomy boot, comfortable seating and intuitive controls. The SE Business specification brings useful tech such as navigation, Bluetooth audio and rear park sensors, plus LED lighting and alloy wheels for a smart presence. Economical, well-equipped and enjoyable to drive, it makes a sensible all-round hatchback.
