Introduction to the world of BMW

[EthanBMW]

Hello!

This is my first post and I specifically joined this forum as I've decided to delve into the world of BMW and will hopefully become an owner of one very soon - nice to meet you all.

Having driven a Ford Fiesta for seven years, it's time for an upgrade and I was thinking of something along the line of a 118i (2016/17) for a starting point to then hopefully upgrade in the future. It's nothing fast, just want something with more HP under the bonnet, a bit more luxury in the cabin, and something I can drive from A to B without terrifying rattles coming from the rear (the Fiesta is on its last legs...).

I was hoping there would be someone in this forum that has owned a BMW 118i in the past or who currently owns one to share their experience - I've of course done some research, watched a lot of owner videos and the next natural step is to test drive one but speaking actual owners would also be super helpful.

Any useful information is more than welcome

I think you would get more information if you posted this in the 1 series forum.
