Fans of BMW behold, they have updated their 1-Series. As usual with these facelifts it’s not exactly easy to spot the difference.

From what we can see, they have updated the look of the headlights which look slimmer, whilst the rear have larger taillights. In terms of the engine, there has been an update with three-cylinder units now being used in Europe. The UK however kicks off with a different range, which starts with a 134bhp four-cylinder 118i. If you’re looking for a diesel model, then we recommend the 221bhp 125d which reaches 0-62mph in 6.3 seconds.

The debut of the updated series will be at the Geneva motor show in March, with prices said to start at around £20,000+.
