This is pretty funny, sound more like people bought the wrong car What Owners Dislike: Complaints of the BMW 1 Series are typically space-related, and revolve around limited trunk space, limited rear-seat space, and limited front-seat space for larger drivers. Some drivers wish for a more comfortable and less busy ride in models with the larger wheels.
Don't spend your whole budget on an OLD luxury car or you'll look even worse taking the bus while it is in the shop.
Here's a truth that should be (but obviously is not) obvious to everyone: If your happiness or the respect that you think that you enjoy depends on the kind of car that you drive, you will live and die in misery.= Get a life.
BMW DEFICIENT DYNAMICS -One of only two manufacturers in the whole of Canada that does not participate in the lemon law protection/arbitration program (CAMVAP). If you order a vehicle and your delivery arrives "dead-on-arrival", guess what? That lemon is yours. You have no recourse. BMW will argue that the warranty is a "limited warranty". Their defect is your fault & they are not liable. You get subjected to browbeating, run-arounds & psychological humiliation.They've changed the body styling too, but it is still the same over-priced pile of scrap metal ... with even more problems & flaky, rickety electronics + unreliable transmission unit(s).Replace/fix battery = $450 + tax + Labor (same battery costs C$90 @ Canadian Tire).Replace/fix a pair of shocks+struts = C$5K + Install+labor+taxReplace/fix power trunk = C$1750 per motor x 3 + labor+tax. Not covered by warranty. There are three of these motors.Replace/fix turbo unit = C$10k + install+labor+Tax (they keep the old parts & the core, coils etc).Replace/fix transmission = C$10K + Install+labor+tax.Transmission &/or turbo unit cannot be rebuilt; must be completely replaced & only exclusively by Bernie Madoff motorWorks because BMW does not make their diagnostics information or software available to others. They keep it to themselves.----www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi_IXrqQ1qcwww.youtube.com/watch?v=58SoI7YKr4owww.youtube.com/user/BMW335iLemon#p/u/7/B3YQg_cJXL4www.youtube.com/watch?v=er_1oJRDktk&feature=relatedwww.youtube.com/watch?v=dHOpUPR5TTM&feature=relatedautos.ca.msn.com/showroom/consumer-reports-least-reliable-brands?page=1www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=308156www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3YQg_cJXL4www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQCvvnVDQIowww.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=lt0sSNSIVjY&feature=fvwp
