I'd definitely go petrol for those short trips around town. I got a 120i and I love mine. BMW's aren't really known for fuel economy and mine averages about 9L/100km.

Mine's been problem free so can't help you with issues. Rear visibility is a bit poor for shorties like me but you get used to it. Oh and the sound system is a bit ordinary...going to upgrade that.

Not a lot of Aus 1ers have idrive when I was looking for mine. If that's a must it's going to be harder to find though the newer you go the better your chances.

hope that helps.
