Questions about used 1 series

Hi Everyone,

I just purchased a new X3 about 6 months ago and am loving being part of the BMW family! My wife is now wanting to join the family herself.

We have looked at used 3 series and 1 series and she seems quite keen on a 1 series. In our price bracket we are looking at most likely a 120i or 120d and a 2008-2010. Most of her driving would be short trips around town and to appointments. This is why I would probably lean toward petrol engine as I think it would be easier on the motor than on the diesel. Thoughts?

Just wanting to hear some feedback on reviews and things to look/look out for with a used one as I don't know much about the 1 series. I have been reading through many posts on here but just not finding a lot of information to help me in our search.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
