The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 120D 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.0 DPF 177 SE 6SPD is a compact, premium four-seat convertible, offering a more individual alternative to the usual family hatchback. Its folding roof brings open-air appeal, while the 120d diesel engine and six-speed manual make it suited to everyday driving as well as weekend trips. In the UK used-car market, it sits between mainstream compact convertibles and pricier, larger luxury models. Mycarcheck.com recorded 28 checks covering 12 different VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. Those checks show an average private-sale value of £5,200 and average recorded mileage of 89,000 miles. Typical annual use was around 6,000 miles, and cars had nearly three previous keepers on average. These figures give buyers helpful context, but each car’s condition and history still matter. Its distinctive open-air drive suits couples and commuters; inspect roof operation, service history and diesel condition before purchase.
