BMW 1 Series

[Spoff]

I am beginning the tentative steps of looking for a new car, and other than performance and the like one of the key requirements is 'will my clubs fit in the boot!'

Does anyone who has one/driven one know if the boot is a decent size?

 

[slugger]

We just bought a new car. Had a look at the 1 series but the boot is tiny. Had to fold down the rear seats and put the clubs in longways!!!

Ended up with a new civic 5 door. Plenty room in it, and plenty oomph from the 2.2 diesel.

A girl I worked with got a new 1 series and she hates it. She would rather have a nices car from one of the standard manufacturers rather than a poor womans Beemer.

The first car BMW made that is aimed specifically at women.

Got a mate who has one, the only way clubs fit is to fold down rear seats. I would be wary of this overpriced model.

I've got one and can fit bag, clubs, shoes, etc in without a problem. Even got enough room for my pull trolley if I need it. I only need to take the driver out of the bag but it still fits in the boot at an angle.

Never had to put the seats down yet either.

I guess it depends on which one you're interested in.
The old style 3/5 door or the new coupe

Mate get a Vauxhall Corsa VXR. End of. Moderators now close post

When i get my car i am getting (hoping to get) the corsa 1.2 SRi but with the VXR style pack, the badboy spoiler, badboy bumper, badboy grill and the blacked out windows . Did i mention you will be able to hear it from 2 miles away (drilling a hole in the exhaust does the job)

The new Ford range is very good. Hired a Mondeo for a golf trip in Scotland and we got 3 bags and 3 small cases and 3 shoe bags in the boot without a problem. Drove well as well. Hadn't tried one before but was impressed.

There is a very very fine line between looking cool.....


and looking like a dickhead!!!!

Hope you tell your insurance company about all the modifications.

 

[RGDave]

Don't bother. Even a 3 series doesn't have enough room for clubs (without taking your driver out).

why not?

They dont make 1.2 SRI's thats why

Get a corsa life and debage it, stick some wolfrace wheels on with some spacers, Fit some blue lights behind your grill and a halfords cone filter and you will pull the chicks from McDonalds no problem!


As for the beemer 1, why would you want a car that looks like an old boot! You could always buy my VRS
