I drove a 4 dr BMW 1 series hatchback in Europe, all over Spain and France. It had the 160 hp, 1.8/2.0 liter turbo diesel. It did around 50 mpg / 20 km/l. Great car. I want one, but they don't import that model (1 series HB) to the US, let alone the diesel. You can't even get the 3 series with smaller than the 328 here. They make 318s. And I know they make a 1.6 liter 4 banger, for the 1 series.
