Richard Hammond's Car of the Year
BMW 1-Series M Coupe
When it comes to insanity, the BMW 1M is like eating a live grenade and washing it down with lava. Just the kind of car Richard Hammond would award his 2011 Car of the Year: "Annoyingly, Ollie Marriage summed this car up perfectly in one word when he drove it for this magazine. He described it as ‘boisterous'... The BMW 1M Coupe is, yes, a small car, but that's not the full story. A labrador puppy and a fully grown duck are both small and roughly the same size as each other, but only one of them will hump your leg, eat your trainers and chew your finger when you try to pet it. And it's not the duck. So the baby BMW is exactly that, a baby, bringing with it all the potential of larger, fully grown cars, with none of the seriousness and restraint of adulthood. Still small, but what it's got in huge, disproportionate spade loads is character. And it's not a duck."
