Going To View A 118D M Sport

[FA57 TAZ]

Hi,

I'm new to the forum and when joining I hoped that I'd be able to get some buying information from the community. I have never owned a BMW, so this will be my first. I have been looking at both 118D and 120D M Sports and have decided to go for a 118D. Having never owned one, I don't really know what to look. I would really appreciate it if someone or a number of you would be able to point out what to look for when looking at a 1 series. I am going to look at one at a garage this coming weekend, with a hope to buying it if all goes well.

Many thanks in advance.

Which model? Year? etc...

[FA57 TAZ]

It's a 2010 118D M Sport with 31,000 on the clock.

Just make sure it has had it's Servicing done and the engine breather replaced

These are decent cars.

What are the service intervals for the 1 series and what should it have had done on any service it's had up to now?

[Cotswold BMW]

It's all done on condition based servicing now.

Ideally it would be

Oil & Micro

Oil, Micro, Air, Fuel

Oil & Micro

My service is all over the place, I quite often just have one part done at the time

Hi James,

So it isn't a schedule as such? For example, my current car a Citroen C2 is 20,000 or two years and has a major service after 72,000 or 6 years.

Not as such no

It's all done via a keyread
