BMW 118i no turbo right? Power-to-fuel consumption will lose to the other 2 already.
Driving dynamism.. why don't you go test drive and see if YOU like it... this one, hard to say.
As for issues, this one depends on luck. All 3 don't have major reported recalls or issues.. but sometimes life gives you lemons. Out of the three I would go with the V40 T5. Less common, and as they say, Volvo for life.
