    BMW F20 (Late 2011-Early 2012)

    2012 BMW 1 Series leaks onto Internet ahead of Frankfurt reveal Autoblog

    I can't decide between truly great or trluy awful on the front.

    Rear feels on the generic side.

    Profile seems pretty much the same as before.

    Apparently it'll have a brand new 1.6 litre turbo four.

    Oh dear, i saw it on Autoblog to, and i just couldn't believe it, what a mess, thoose headlights make no sense, then the chuby back with Polo rearlights.
    The 1 series coupe is one the cars i'd like to have, but i just can't see myself wanting this in coupe form. It's particularly ugly.

    I have to say that at first i thought this was a BMW prank, to send some photos to the net before Frankfurt, just to mess around. I actualy still hope it is.

    Those headlights make it look like a moth or something, very bug-ish

    & when it first got released i searched & there wasnt a 3 door available anywhere - which is why i ignored it totally

    but man with a 3 door option im left seriously thinking about importing one!

    ps - the audi 1 is even more deviod of creativity than the new bmw 1
