The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 120I 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.0 170 EU5 SPORT STEP AUTO6 is a compact premium four-seat convertible, combining the familiar 1 Series footprint with an electrically operated fabric roof. In the UK used market, it offers a more individual alternative to ordinary family hatchbacks and affordable open-top rivals. With a six-speed automatic gearbox and 170bhp petrol engine, it suits relaxed weekend drives and everyday commuting, particularly for couples or small households who value roof-down motoring over maximum boot space. The Sport trim gives it a purposeful look, while rear seats make it more practical than many two-seat roadsters. Mycarcheck.com records 42 checks across 13 distinct cars, a modest snapshot. Checked examples averaged £5,300 in private-sale value, 140,000 miles and 3.4 previous keepers; recorded annual mileage averaged 3,000. Against rivals, this BMW stands out for rear-wheel-drive character and open-air appeal, though check condition and history carefully.
