Cover the front and that could be absolutely anything. Shame BMW's aren't very distinctive any more but, yes, I suppose there's only so much you can do with the styling of one of these types of car.

That looks hideous! From that photo it looks like an A-class at the back and a 3 series from the front.

I was going to say it looks a bit like a citron Picasso

I then went to look for pics and realised the Picasso is actually a better looking car

The link seems to be broken, it just brings up a picture of a Seat Alhambra.

Wonder how many marketing geniuses it took to come up with the tag "Active Tourer".

It's hard work for a company having to shuffle numbers as a model name. I'm surprised they didn't steal Variant from VW, they steal most of their other ideas.

Fixed that for you.

But, but, splutters, what were they thinking of?
My eyes, my eyes. I've just checked and it it's still there. Please take it away, please?

Some twonk will buy it, just like they did the Audi Q3, B-Class and BMW X3 which IMO are pretty pointless 'gap-fillers' in the line-up.

I think that looks very smart. The proportions of it look right and the front is much better than a 1-series.
