If you can work on your own car… buy a used bmw private party… if you going to pay other people to do work buy from dealership with warranty and maybe extended warranty. You can have a perfectly maintained car blow a gasket 3 days after owning it
I got a 90 day warranty and drove the car hard to see if problems would occur and sure enough battery died in 2 weeks headlights went out and got a free oil change and tires replaced. Ever since then I had no problems just sold the car for $18k at 115k miles never had any problems ever again other than an O2 sensor.

I am really liking your channel on I was watching your video on buying a high mileage BMW 135 and I was wondering if you can help me decide on whether to one. I also loved your video on which one you would buy between a Skyline or a BMW. I would have picked the Skyline as well. I owned an R32 but I had to sell it. The saddest day of my life but back to what I'm messaging you about. It is a BMW 135 M Sport with a new exhaust. But it has a lot of kilometres on it and it has been track driven. 2012 BMW 135 i M SPORT 6 SPEED MANUAL DINAN EXHAUST. I was wondering if it would be a good buy. I would really like your opinion or maybe I should just get the Subaru Legacy Spec B. I like your channel on BMW 135, it has a lot of great advice.
I appreciate the kind words man, and selling a skyline sounds like a terrible day. But we can always get another. I actually ended up getting the skyline lol. But back the the bmw, If it’s a track car I’d get the compression testing and inspect it very very well. There’s a difference between a few track days and a purpose built track car. I hope it’s clean and is a good price with those km’s on it
I found this 2008 BMW 5 series with 254000km and it was treated well and it looks really good. I just worried it's about to crap out in 10 kilometers. Owner says it's in a good condition
That generation of 5 series id be careful with, especially with those miles. I would try to save up and get a lower KM car or a slightly newer car with the n55 engine.
@@boostedbijan wtf hahaha 254000km is a high kms? my god! i see e60 with 600000kms running dude, my e46 325ci has 342000 you just have to take care about the engine
I hope you reply even 3 years later, im looking to get a 2013 bmw 1 series 116d 2.0 litre engine, its got 181k on it, said its been looked after and in good condition. What do i do?
Do they have maintenance records? Because that is pretty high mileage. Radiator and water pump should have been done. How is the fuel pump doing? If it’s manual when’s the clutch been replaced? It’s also a diesel which adds another level of inspection required. If it’s extremely clean with service records and it’s cheap, it may be a good daily driver. If it has red flags or questionable service, proceed with EXTREME caution. Best of luck brotha!
If the price is good and maintenance is on point those are fun cars. Not super quick but easy maintenance and very long lasting. At 100k a couple things need to be done: water pump and radiator.
That's a very reliable smooth engine. I've had 2 first was 2009 328i wish I still had but traded it in years ago with about 160k nothing wrong but valve cover gasket oil leak super reliable car for bmw
Is 200k miles on a e46 330ci a lot? Car was always taken to bmw for service and it was a California car so the body is mint and the guy I’m buying it from modified it a bit with a intake tune and lowered but it looks MINT
Hi, I'm looking at a 2014 BMW M235i with 112k miles, how's the reliability? Would I use it for daily use? Does the Stage 2 car affect reliability in any way? Or would it be better to get a stock one with miles?
112k for modern BMWs isn’t bad. But there’s a couple things to be aware of. Water pump and radiator should have been done or they will go out. Same with the valve cover and turbo. Around that mileage those 4 maintenance items come up. Also get the car from someone who maintained it. Not someone who tuned it and never took care of it.
Im looking at a 2017 330i with 76k miles and is clean, but the other option is a 2014 335i with 117k miles. Both are around the same price but the 335i has the M sport package, chrome delete, tinted windows, m style mirror caps, dual exhaust, painted brake calipers, carbon fiber spoiler, nice rims. I know the 76k mile one would be better but i really like the sport package and its hard to find one in my area. (I'd have to pay for the carfax report for this one but assuming everything has been maintained well). Thoughts?
I found a 2013 750i xdrive I checked the car facts and it has not been in any accidents I see where they did maintenance regularly.. a radiator hose replaced,new water pump .. the car looks great inside and out the thing is there is 243,219 miles for sale at $4,995 would this be a good purchase ?
im looking to buy a 2011 740li with 185k km on it, its been treated well and is in good condition not so sure about it tho, loved the video btw great job !
I appreciate that man. So my friend had that year 740li. I’m not sure if his was a specific case but he had a bunch of issues. Transmission shifting off etc. his was bought from auction so that could be why his had issues. But if it’s running right and the price is right those cars ride like a dream. Super soft.
I just found a 2010 f10 520d with 274 000km. The engine was changed at 120 000km and swapped with a 2014 engine. It has been taken good care of, should i consider buying it?
a bmw and a bmw 320i xdrive sedan with 83k miles. My question is are there any concerns i should be worried about with almost 90k miles on a everyday drive car? clean title one owner car fax looks good to me as well
90k miles a couple things can come up. Water pump usually goes out at 100k, same with radiator. Those cars are pretty reliable. If it’s clean and well priced that should be a great daily driver buy. My only concern is, with the x-drive cars of that generation, I’ve heard of a small % of cars being affected by this bearing issue in the rear diff of the awd system. But like I said only a small %. Wish you luck 👌
Hey, thanks for the informative video, I was wondering if it is worth it to buy a 2011 Bww Series 3 328i with a minor accident that has been fixed And Has 150k Miles on it Owner is asking 5500. Can you lmk if it is worth the price?
It depends on your market. Out here in Los Angeles, that is an ok deal. I would look at all the maintenance to see how the car has been taken care of before buying. But that model is very reliable and long lasting if taken care of.
A bmw e36 is listed at 175k miles with a stock non boosted engine. It said it was taken care of by a good owner, but idk if 170 is a lot for these cars?
Can someone let me know if a 2015 650i xdrive is a decent car I can’t find anything problematic at the one I’m looking at drives great and looks well maintained with 110,000 miles for $19000
I’d be careful with x-drive cars around 100k miles. The rear differential gets very clunky until you rebuild it around that mileage. Around a $1-2k service. Also that price seems high. I would proceed with caution. Best of luck brotha.
I am looking at a 3 series GT (328i) with 107.000 km (just over 60k miles) from 2014. Not sure though, I just read that BMW's don't last that long. What do you think? Price is 21.000 euro's.
60k miles, 2014, 328 are pretty reliable from my experience. I’d check to make sure the spark plugs and basic service was done and then it’s a good car. Not sure about pricing though as I only know the US market. And here that’s too much.
Great video @boostedbijan, become fan of your channel. Keep up the good work! How do you think about my recent bought 2010 X3 XDrive30i 120k miles with service history : car looks good with no problems except coolant leakage sometimes. Good interior & exterior. car price is 7.5K How long you think theses engines last ? how many miles i can run more over a period? Any of your video recommendation to self maintain this car?
Thanks brotha! My brother had that exact car and loved it. Basic bmw maintenance. Oil every 5k, radiator and water pump every 100k. Spark plugs every 20-30k. The only thing I’ve heard of going wrong on those, is there is a gear inside the rear diff that will go out around 100k miles and create a clunking sound from the rear end. Once that’s fixed, and the car is well maintained that car will last you years. Congrats on the purchase!
N52 I have less experience with. At 200k km you’re at 120 miles which isn’t much for those motors IF they’ve been taken care of. If they have all the service records and the price is good that may not be a bad daily. Suspension can be expensive depending on your year but I think it’s about $500 Here stateside.
I'm looking at a 2016 bmw 2 series active tourer 225xe, but it has 220,000 miles. It was a company so its done a lot of highway miles and has a full bmw service history. The car seems to be in great condition, what do you think? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
There’s couple things to know, that’s a lot of miles, even if it’s highway. If you have full service records and the car drives beautifully I’d consider it for a VERY low price. Also know, that awd system needs a $1000-$2000 refresh every 100k miles. So if they didn’t do it at 200k miles, you may get stuck with it.
That’s kinda high ownership. At that mileage make sure the price is great and the water pump, radiator and valve cover have been done. Also know your turbo will be on its way out at that mileage.
You could check the compression and ask for maintenance records. If compression is good and maintenance is done sounds like an ok deal. E46s need a lot more checks as they have been around longer. Ie suspension components, subframe cracks etc…
What engine does the 118d have? I’m not too familiar on BMW diesels, but diesels in general tend to have a very long life span as long as they’re taken care of well.
If I remember correctly those engines are not the most reliable. I think it had a v8. I’d search on the forums and see what people are replacing. But a v8 manual is always fun
Honest advice? I’m looking to buy with a loan from the bank. The range and amount limit me to 3 series with N52, N55, N20 engines (mainly N20s, which I’m scared of because of the notorious timing chain issues. Also been trying to look for a n55 e92 that fit the age range but everywhere I go, they’re overpriced (even with multiple owners)? Should I take that risk with a N20? I’m an Atlanta resident
Whats up bro! So id recommend the n55 all day long as long as long as they're clean. Low owners and good condition. If the mileage is a little higher, in some situations, that can be ok as long as a caring owner took care of the car. As far as multiple owners and being overpriced I wouldn't recommend it. Try searching Craigslist and offer-up to find better deals that what the dealer is offering. Wish you luck!
That generation 535i has the n55. So it's pretty reliable. At around 100k miles, radiator and water pump will have to get done, if the previous owner didn't do them. Luxury and speed, love it!
How’s the maintenance on it? I would look at comparables in your area to see if that price is acceptable. Then I would ask about maintenance. Around 100k a few maintenance items need to be completed. Radiator and water pump to name a couple.
Those miles are very high but if the maintenance is on point those are long lasting cars. And the price seems good. Check maintenance and overall condition. If you really want peace of mind do a compression test.
If it’s well maintained and clean title that’s a pretty good price. Used a company means it’s possible it was driven very hard, I’d check compression but sounds pretty good overall.
Hey I need your help . I saw a 2014 bmw 3 series 328i xdrive at 170000miles and the price is actually high 12000$ cad . And I wanted to know if you think it’s worth buying
2014 328 is a really reliable car. I don’t trust the x drive though. Around 100k I’ve seen a lot of them have internal issues which requires finding a whole pumpkin to swap it with. Also that price seems high for the mileage.
If it has service records and all recent maintenance has been completed, seems like a pretty solid deal. I’d offer 4-5k and see if he’ll come down a bit. Best of luck brotha. If it’s clean title*
e36 328's are very reliable but thats quite a bit of miles. Converts to about 155k miles. At that point the engine should have a good service. All the valve cover gaskets, front and rear main seals etc.. all changed. Clutch done if it was a manual. And all the suspension bushings inspected for breakdown. If the price is great and the above mentioned things have been done then i'd recommend it. But if the maintenance hasn't been done, know it will have to get done under your ownership and it aint cheap.
@@boostedbijan the one I’m getting has 205k miles, the valve cover gasket is bad but the guy is replacing it right now. Is it a good buy? It’s a e36 325i 1993
Thanks brotha! Not a big fan of the xi just because they have awd issues. At around 100k and 200k the rear diffs usually need rebuilding. Also those don't have the DCT, they have slush box transmissions. Also 150k miles on a bimmer, you're gonna run into a lot of maintenance items. Valve cleaning, radiator if it was never done, suspension refresh etc... I'd be careful with that one unless you're prepared to drop a lot into maintenance and don't mind the transmission. I'd recommend looking for a manual non-xi and pay a couple grand more. More fun less headache lol
6:00 that is bullshit.... I am not paying hundreds of dollars for a fucking oil change at bmw so i can have it on record, when i can do it myself... My car haven't been serviced by bmw since 190xx km and that is 150xx km ago. Both myself and previous owner has serviced the car, changed the brakes, brake caliper, pumps vaccum line everything myself, for free. only parts. Has now done 337xx km and has never been to a dealer. The only thing, that tells you is the owner likes to wipe his ass with sandpaper and incompetent of working on his own car.. The only time you should take a bmw to bmw, and not get your ass scammed is for a recall..
I just bought a 2013 x3 28i xdrive with 106k miles for 10k from the dealer in good clean condition clean interior no check engine run smooth do u think it was a good deal or I got ripped off?
As a student should I go for a BMW with 80-100k miles on it? My budget is 15k. Or should I go for something else with lesser miles. I want a reliable car for just 1-2 years.
Hey there, if you have experience with cars getting an older bmw with 100k isn’t the worst plan. Just be willing to set aside a lot of TH-cam time to fix things that will go wrong. If you don’t want to deal with any maintenance, and just want reliable, can always get a Camry or a Corolla. 👌
@@boostedbijan thanks for answering! I totally agree with you. I am gonna skip buying the one with 100k miles, and go for something that is not gonna waste my time. However, how about a car with 50k miles on it? In particular, There’s a jaguar xf available with 45k miles.

What engine does the 118d have? I’m not too familiar on BMW diesels, but diesels in general tend to have a very long life span as long as they’re taken care of well.
Looking at a 2008 550i manual with a bit under 140k miles, any good?
If I remember correctly those engines are not the most reliable. I think it had a v8. I’d search on the forums and see what people are replacing. But a v8 manual is always fun
Honest advice? I’m looking to buy with a loan from the bank. The range and amount limit me to 3 series with N52, N55, N20 engines (mainly N20s, which I’m scared of because of the notorious timing chain issues. Also been trying to look for a n55 e92 that fit the age range but everywhere I go, they’re overpriced (even with multiple owners)? Should I take that risk with a N20? I’m an Atlanta resident
Whats up bro! So id recommend the n55 all day long as long as long as they're clean. Low owners and good condition. If the mileage is a little higher, in some situations, that can be ok as long as a caring owner took care of the car. As far as multiple owners and being overpriced I wouldn't recommend it. Try searching Craigslist and offer-up to find better deals that what the dealer is offering. Wish you luck!
My honest advice... don't get a loan for an old car....
What if parts need fixing? Will you get another loan?
Just found a 2013 BMW series 535 I with 90,000 miles. Carfax looks clean . What do you think about reliability?
That generation 535i has the n55. So it's pretty reliable. At around 100k miles, radiator and water pump will have to get done, if the previous owner didn't do them. Luxury and speed, love it!
What about a 2015 328 x drive with 61k. Really clean condition it’s only 11,5K should I buy
same question
How’s the maintenance on it? I would look at comparables in your area to see if that price is acceptable. Then I would ask about maintenance. Around 100k a few maintenance items need to be completed. Radiator and water pump to name a couple.
Yo what do you think about 2013 328i at 6k. 160k miles!
Those miles are very high but if the maintenance is on point those are long lasting cars. And the price seems good. Check maintenance and overall condition. If you really want peace of mind do a compression test.
do you have any suggestion on 2nd hand price and which platform or website to look for 2nd hand 135i ?
Hey man I’d recommend searching Craigslist of big cities and cars.com. Those are where I find my cars
@@boostedbijan awesome thank you!!! :)
I found a 2011 135i with a good service record used by a company not personal use. It has 104k miles for $11k. What do yal think?
If it’s well maintained and clean title that’s a pretty good price. Used a company means it’s possible it was driven very hard, I’d check compression but sounds pretty good overall.
Hey I need your help . I saw a 2014 bmw 3 series 328i xdrive at 170000miles and the price is actually high 12000$ cad . And I wanted to know if you think it’s worth buying
2014 328 is a really reliable car. I don’t trust the x drive though. Around 100k I’ve seen a lot of them have internal issues which requires finding a whole pumpkin to swap it with. Also that price seems high for the mileage.
2014 540i 140k miles for 6k, what do you think?
If it has service records and all recent maintenance has been completed, seems like a pretty solid deal. I’d offer 4-5k and see if he’ll come down a bit. Best of luck brotha. If it’s clean title*
Is a 160k mileage for a 2007 bmw 3 series 328i any good?
If the price is good and it’s been well maintained the 328i can go for a very long time. I’ve seen people get another 100k out of those motors.
Do you recommend 1996 328I convertible 250000km? it looks nice and well taken care of but it had 7 owners before
e36 328's are very reliable but thats quite a bit of miles. Converts to about 155k miles. At that point the engine should have a good service. All the valve cover gaskets, front and rear main seals etc.. all changed. Clutch done if it was a manual. And all the suspension bushings inspected for breakdown. If the price is great and the above mentioned things have been done then i'd recommend it. But if the maintenance hasn't been done, know it will have to get done under your ownership and it aint cheap.
@@boostedbijan the one I’m getting has 205k miles, the valve cover gasket is bad but the guy is replacing it right now. Is it a good buy? It’s a e36 325i 1993
Great video 🔥 What do you think about a e90 335xi 147k for 6,600$ with no accident, serviced on time & had multiple owners?
Thanks brotha! Not a big fan of the xi just because they have awd issues. At around 100k and 200k the rear diffs usually need rebuilding. Also those don't have the DCT, they have slush box transmissions. Also 150k miles on a bimmer, you're gonna run into a lot of maintenance items. Valve cleaning, radiator if it was never done, suspension refresh etc... I'd be careful with that one unless you're prepared to drop a lot into maintenance and don't mind the transmission.
I'd recommend looking for a manual non-xi and pay a couple grand more. More fun less headache lol
6:00 that is bullshit.... I am not paying hundreds of dollars for a fucking oil change at bmw so i can have it on record, when i can do it myself... My car haven't been serviced by bmw since 190xx km and that is 150xx km ago. Both myself and previous owner has serviced the car, changed the brakes, brake caliper, pumps vaccum line everything myself, for free. only parts. Has now done 337xx km and has never been to a dealer. The only thing, that tells you is the owner likes to wipe his ass with sandpaper and incompetent of working on his own car.. The only time you should take a bmw to bmw, and not get your ass scammed is for a recall..
Is a 2002 bmw 330 CI worth buying ?
I wouldn’t. That generation has some issues with oil leaks, wiring and suspension.
I just bought a 2013 x3 28i xdrive with 106k miles for 10k from the dealer in good clean condition clean interior no check engine run smooth do u think it was a good deal or I got ripped off?
Sounds like a good deal to me man. As long as its a clean interior and exterior, an x3 is great for that price and mileage.
2003 325i
153k miles 🤔
If well taken care of and not modded, could be a good buy if the price is right
328i N52 w 130k miles??
Uhh 328 don’t have an n54 brotha
@@boostedbijan Yo wtf 😂 i didn't even realize i put N54 lmao meant to put N52
As a student should I go for a BMW with 80-100k miles on it?
My budget is 15k. Or should I go for something else with lesser miles. I want a reliable car for just 1-2 years.
Hey there, if you have experience with cars getting an older bmw with 100k isn’t the worst plan. Just be willing to set aside a lot of TH-cam time to fix things that will go wrong. If you don’t want to deal with any maintenance, and just want reliable, can always get a Camry or a Corolla. 👌
@@boostedbijan thanks for answering! I totally agree with you. I am gonna skip buying the one with 100k miles, and go for something that is not gonna waste my time.
However, how about a car with 50k miles on it? In particular, There’s a jaguar xf available with 45k miles.
Is a 190k mileage for a 2006 bmw 750i any good?
Wouldn’t recommend brotha. Too many miles for that engine and those 7 series aren’t the most reliable.
Need your help asap.. Looking to buy a bmw 2 series active tourer with 103,000mileage. Is this a good purchase ?
Which 2 series brotha? If it’s the 235 or 240, both are great cars. Good luck!
