The BMW 1 Series is currently featured as the “Deal of the Day” due to a leasing offer through Auto Express’ Buy A Car service. This makes the premium German hatchback accessible for as little as £216 per month.
Deal Details and Key Considerations
The offer, provided by Lease Car UK, applies to a brand-new BMW 120i Sport over a four-year term. The monthly payment is £216.25, but requires a substantial initial payment of £2,943 (equivalent to 12 monthly installments).
Important points:
- The deal includes a 5,000-mile annual limit, which may not suit drivers who travel longer distances.
- Increasing the mileage allowance to 8,000 miles raises the monthly cost to £260.26, while reducing the initial payment to £1,856.56.
- This price point is competitive with other premium hatchbacks like the Volkswagen Golf, often offering better mileage terms.
Performance and Features
The 120i Sport model features a 2.0-liter mild-hybrid petrol engine producing 168bhp, enabling a 0-62mph acceleration in 7.8 seconds. Efficiency is also noteworthy, with BMW claiming over 52mpg on average.
Standard equipment includes:
- Automatic gearbox
- Dual 10-inch-plus screens
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Heated front seats
- 17-inch wheels
- Reversing camera
