Should I buy a three-door or five-door BMW 1 Series?

The five-door BMW 1 Series is the most common and the most practical for a family. The three-door, offered on the E87 and F20, was dropped with the 2019 F40.

Is the BMW 1 Series roomy in the back?

In the E87 and F20, rear-wheel drive limits rear legroom and boot space. The front-wheel-drive F40 gains noticeably in rear room and boot size.

What documents do I need to buy a BMW 1 Series in France?

The seller hands over the certificat d'immatriculation, crossed through and signed, and a contrôle technique under six months old if the 1 Series is over four years old. The change of keeper is then done online through the ANTS website.
