BMW 118D AND 123D CONVERTIBLE GO ON SALE: "Two of BMW's most popular diesel engines are now available in the 1 Series Convertible. BMW's most economical four-cylinder diesel engine ever and the award-winning twin–turbocharged unit are a timely introduction for new car buyers seeking open-air motoring but are worried about rising fuel costs.

The 118d Convertible is powered by a 1,995cc single turbocharged engine producing 143hp and 300Nm of torque. This results in a zero to 62mph time of 9.5 seconds and a top speed of 129mph. Most impressive though is the 118d Convertible's ability to record a combined consumption figure of 57.6mpg and CO2 emissions of 129g/km. This means the vehicle, courtesy of BMW's EfficientDynamics technologies, is the most economical and least polluting convertible car in its class."
