BMW 1-Series Comparison >

The futuristic looking fwd Honda Civic enters this sector more than £2,000 less than the rear wheel drive BMW 1-Series.

The 1-Series has high end models near £30,000. A Honda Civic Type-R is half a second off the mark but leaves £8,000 in your pocket. There's not £8,000 difference in brand equity.
