What year was the first BMW 135i released?

I’ve been wanting to purchase a BMW for a while but can’t afford to splurge on a new model. What is the oldest BMW 135i I can buy?

Purchasing a used car is a great way to avail yourself of a brand’s award-winning features without dishing out for a brand-new model. This is especially true of

’s continually reliable cars—including the
BMW 135i
, which was first released in 2007.
Part of BMW’s 2004 flagship 1-series line-up, the BMW 135i was introduced in 2007 when the brand enhanced the 1-series with new bodywork versions, new interiors, and new engines. The newest iterations of the 1-series—including the BMW M135i xDrive 8AT AWD—are still being manufactured today as part of the 1-series’ sixth generation.
