The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 118D 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.0 DPF 143 EU5 SPORT PLUS EDITION AUTO6 is a compact four-seat convertible, pairing BMW style with open-air appeal. Its two-door layout feels sporty rather than family-focused. In the UK used market, it suits buyers wanting a premium alternative to mainstream small cars and larger cabriolets. Mycarcheck.com records show 185 look-ups across 76 distinct VINs. Checked cars averaged £5,200 in private-sale value, 88,000 miles and 5,000 miles annually. They had almost four previous keepers, so check each car’s history: these figures are a snapshot, not a guarantee. The 2.0-litre diesel automatic makes it a comfortable choice for weekday commuting and longer journeys, while Sport Plus trim gives it a well-equipped feel. It offers more style and rear-drive character than front-wheel-drive rivals, but rear-seat and boot space are limited. Best suited for couples or solo drivers who value comfort, economy and open-air motoring.
