Had a look in person at the 535i with 130000 on the clock. (on Trade me)
First impression: mechanically sound car, tyres worn to the thread, (Owner bought a new car).
Has had regular services yearly. Impression overall: drives well, interior quite worn (13000km and a brown sand colored interior and the owners used this car as a daily vehicle not necessarily paid too much attention to keeping it neat.
130000 km on the clock.
I have 2 questions to the Bimmer forum
Does anybody dare to predict when the drive-train is going to be too worn to maintain?
And what big costs are ahead that can be predicted.
How much maintenance budget would be sensible to set aside until then.
I plan to drive around 10000/year.
Thanks for any input
Willem
