Would you recommend the BMW 1 Series 116d Urban?
I commute around 100 miles round trip per day. Would you recommend the BMW 1 Series 116d Urban as a good engine size for this commute?

Gives very good fuel economy, free annual VED and this sort of running should be good for the Efficient Dynamics and for the DPF. Fairly slow, though. Does not have the spirit of a 320dED.
