      <description><![CDATA[PROS: Good looking, great handling/acceleration, excellent power/performance <br/><br/> CONS: Not sure of future reliablity <br/><br/> REVIEW: The 135i convertible is very sharp. It packs tons of power in a littler car.I was in the dealer to check out the new X6 but then I saw this great looking convertible parked besides. Both the X6 and the 135i sit 4 people. There are plenty of room in the front seat of the car; the back can be a  ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=13&trimId=24137">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: N.A <br/><br/> REVIEW: I  had my 2009 not even 24 hours when on a busy california freeway I lost all power and the car dyed without warning and became a target for all vehicles in the fast lane behind myself and my young daughter and little dog. I was stranded and caused many near-misses for 45 minutes, it took 2  ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=42&trimId=23747">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: Excellent performance, quick and fast, great handling, nice extras <br/><br/> CONS: plain dash, convertible is a bit noisy, large blind spot when backing <br/><br/> REVIEW: I went from a Mercedes 350SLK to the 135i.  While I really like the hardtop convertible, the BMW is faster, more comfortable, better ride, better handling.  This car is fun to drive, but it&#39;s also very comfortable.  You get all the benefits of a small roadster with a comfortable ride and a back  ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=11&trimId=24137">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: acceleration, handling, quality construction, fun to drive <br/><br/> CONS: no spare tire, cup holder, cabin storage <br/><br/> REVIEW: This is my first BMW. I&#39;ve had it for four months and put on 8,000 miles.  It lives up to BMW&#39;s reputation as a well built, great handling car.  To say it&#39;s fun to drive is an understatement.  The in-line six with the twin turbos gives this car fantastic acceleration, and with the sport  ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=10&trimId=24137">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: Fuel consumption is ok for me, I live in Germany and didnt buy the car to travel everywhere! <br/><br/> CONS: Havent had any issues so far, I knew what I was buying. I say test drive it before you buy it. <br/><br/> REVIEW: I am really happy with my purchase of the 2009 128i coupe. The car is spacious enough for me my wife and two little ones, and comfortable enough for a decent ride a couple hours away. I have hit the back roads in the mountains down in Odenwald, and have found that it handles just as good in these  ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=40&trimId=23747">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: Fast, good looking and fun to drive <br/><br/> CONS: small backseat <br/><br/> REVIEW: I went to look at a 328i BMW Vert and saw a 135i vert on the lot.  It&#39;s price was less than the 328i and it had the same engine as the 335i, so I gave it a test drive.  The car stole my heart with its effortless power, great handling and roomy front seat (I am 6&#39;5).

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: I really like the sound system, full blast I can feel the beat. <br/><br/> CONS: is a bit loud engine wise <br/><br/> REVIEW: I bought this car so I can drive it around town, compact easy parking etc. I like the handling of the car. I&#39;ve had it for about little over a month now. So far so good. I like the idea that I get to service the car every 15K or once a year, they cover maintenance for 4 yrs ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=38&trimId=23747">Read full review </a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[PROS: 135i outperforms E46 M3.  300 lb/ft of torque at 1400 rpms! <br/><br/> CONS: No Mechanical LSD.  Electronically controlled slip works fine but not as sporty as mechanical. <br/><br/> REVIEW: Got about 7,000 miles on it.  Overall the ride is a just a bit too harsh for daily driving.  It&#39;s bareable but you&#39;ll find yourself thinking twice when aproaching pot holes or any imperfections in the road.
It&#39;s like a mix of a E46 M3 and E92 335i. ... <br/></br><a href="http://autos.yahoo.com/2008_bmw_1_series-review_user/?reviewId=68&trimId=23749">Read full review </a>]]></description>
