The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 120D 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.0 DPF 177 SE DYNAMIC STEP AUTO6 is a compact premium convertible: a small, two-door BMW with a folding roof, rather than a family hatchback or SUV. It sits above mainstream open-top cars, appealing to buyers seeking a more upmarket badge and rear-wheel-drive character. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 139 look-ups covering 68 distinct VINs, a useful sample of real shopper interest. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £3,600 and average recorded mileage of 110,000 miles; typical annual use is 6,000 miles. Cars have averaged nearly four previous keepers, so review each car’s history carefully. The 120d diesel suits commuters and couples wanting open-air drives with pace for motorway trips, while the automatic makes traffic easier. It offers more style and open-air enjoyment than a 1 Series hatch, but less practicality; compare it with the Audi A3 Cabriolet and Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet, close rivals.
