The third-generation (that’s F40 to us BMW geeks) 1 Series got a whole load of flack when it first appeared. That was partly down to its chunky proportions, but what really riled fans was the move from a rear-wheel drive layout to a front-driven format.
Why did this anger so many people? Well, BMW’s USP has always been how driver-focused their cars are. Take away the rear-wheel drive layout and not only could it ruin the experience behind the wheel, but it could take away the car’s USP against rivals such as the VW Golf Mk8 and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
So why did BMW shake-up the 1 Series formula? And does it still stand out amongst its rivals in the hatchback world?
