Saw a 1-series for the first time today. Once lowered and on some nice wheels it'll look acceptable.

Default VW badges are about the same size/shape as BMW badges...

...perhaps some rebadging is in order?

Default The press are pretty much agreed the 1 series handles very poorly

The car suffers from terminal understeer and gets twitchy under power and braking.

Default Maybe so...

...although I thought I'd read pretty positive things in Automobile and R&amp;T.

But in any case, in a real world setting it felt pretty good to me. No, I wasn't pushing it to the limits, but given that I don't do track days it's the real world feel of a car that matters to me.

He may have been kidding, I certainly haven't read a negative review.
