i think the 128i is GREAT for that role.
i don't have a 128i but i had a 135is before and now a 1M. i drive 60 miles each way every day in my 1M (120 miles a day). 73k miles on the car.....NO issues at all besides a HPFP failure which is covered by extended warranty on N54s through BMW. Original clutch......there is NO substitute for having a fun daily driver....by all means get the 128i i think it's great for that purpose! The most important car you have is the one you drive every single day.
don't listen to people banter about reliability. you get people like me saying 'no issues' and then you get people crying about all their problems. Follow the old school BMW maintenance schedule as mentioned above and do aggressive maintenance and all should be fine. These cars are definitely reliable.
