There has never been a BMW that has been hurriedly facelifted because of individual opinion. For many that state the E65 was quickly facelifted only has to investigate that's its facelift occurred in 2005 at its mid-life.
The 1er will be facelifted in 2014. Its mid life before changeover to new UKL matrix in 2017.

Strong seller doesn't mean people like the way it looks
It's a great car, I'm sure, that's why it sells
But not for its looks
that front end is probably the ugliest front end to grace a BMW
If you disagree lets wait and see if any other BMW will have those butt ugly headlights
Or if they will die the miserable death they deserve
Keep in mind also that its a strong seller compared to what?
Lets wait and see how it sells after the A3 sedan and the CLA hit the market
It seems your attitude is more along the lines of "we didn't mess up, and we won't change it till its at its half life just to prove it"
It's ok to admit BMW has messed up the styling
