When it comes to automakers building cars that stick to the pure, unadulterated essence of driving, few do it as well as BMW. And in the Bavarian carmaker’s lineage, few cars uphold the promise of “sheer driving pleasure”. These days, with so many emission standards having to be upheld and cars becoming tamer by the day, you have to go back in time to find vehicles that still deliver on that promise. In BMW’s case, though it have done its best to bring cars to market that live up to its driver-first promise, one such car that lives up to that promise is the BMW 135i.
