BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 116I 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 DYNAMIC 6SPD
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 116I 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 DYNAMIC 6SPD is a five-door petrol hatchback offering a more premium feel than many mainstream family runabouts. It sits in the UK’s compact-car class, competing with the Volkswagen Golf, Audi A3 and Ford Focus, but stands out for its BMW badge and engaging rear-wheel-drive character.
Mycarcheck.com has 41 look-ups covering 22 distinct cars, a useful snapshot rather than a full market survey. The data records an average private-sale valuation of £1,800 and average latest mileage of 97,000 miles. Typical annual mileage is 7,000, while the average keeper count is about five, so check service history, ownership records and condition carefully.
A good fit for commuters, couples and small families, it has rear doors and an engaging drive. The manual gearbox adds involvement, but age, mileage and condition matter when judging costs. Check carefully, not just for the BMW badge overall.
Considering a BMW 1 Series? Outstanding finance, write-offs, hidden damage, mileage problems or theft could turn a bargain into a costly mistake. Enter the reg now and check before you buy.
