Is the "1" series mouse hover at top of webpage correct?

olds350 · 09-15-2018, 03:38 PM

I was looking at some of the other forums listed at the top of the page just to see what's going on in other forums. When I hover over the 1 series, I noticed it has the e82, e83, e87 and e88 along with the f20 an 21. I see where the f series is most likely a euro car, but there are 2 things I see wrong.

The e83 google search returns the X3 and not a 1 series car. Is that correct? I also see the date range for the e series goes from '04-'11. I know the earlier date range cars where euro cars, but the '08 was the first arrival in the states. My concern here is I have owned a '12 and a '13 e88, so curious why the date range doesn't reflect that since it ends at '11.

It should be E81, not E83, that is a strange mistake. The 1-Series hatchbacks (E81, E87; 3-door, 5-door, respectively) were released in Europe in 2004-ish, before the coupe/vert (E82, E88) were released (to include America in something good, for once) in 2008, before being discontinued here (while Europe got the F20/F21 1-er

) in 2013.

If we had gotten the hatch, I might be driving one of those instead. It's not everyday that there's a full-fat rear-wheel-drive hatchback with a sweet inline-six, and some awesome driving dynamics...
