The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 120I 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.0 170 M SPORT 6SPD is a premium compact, four-seat convertible, offering an open-air alternative to the 1 Series hatchback. It suits buyers seeking everyday usability with more style than a conventional small car, although its rear seats and boot are less convenient than a family hatchback's. With 170bhp, M Sport trim and a six-speed manual gearbox, the 2.0-litre petrol engine gives lively, involving driving. This BMW 1 Series convertible is best for couples, solo drivers and commuters who enjoy weekend trips and roof-down motoring; it is less suited to families needing easy access or generous luggage space. Compared with an Audi A3 Cabriolet, it offers a compact premium feel and distinctive BMW character. mycarcheck.com has logged 644 checks across 258 VINs.
