Totally worth it if you work on your own cars, and never pay the asking price.

I would get one after the timing chain issue was fixed, these are good engines

The highest mile beamer I ever saw was in a dealership I worked at in 2022. 2007 BMW 3 series. It had around 460,000 miles on it. You can tell bits and pieces of the interior were replaced. According to receiving and sales, they stated this was the original engine and transmission (turbo was replaced at some point. But timely maintenance was key). I got the full story from the sales rep: The owner had taken excellent care of the car, having to do a few DIY stuff to it. He was the third owner and the previous owner had a job that he traveled a lot, so the car mostly got driven around the US. He received it around the 300K~. He drove it up until he graduated and got a good job, he drove off with a 2018 BMW 5 Series. Signs of rust were all over the car, the interior was stiff, cracked, chipped, worn. New pieces mixed with old. The third owner said the biggest issue he had was when the second blower motor went out and being a college student who couldn't afford the costly maintenance of taking out the entire dash. He hired a friend who simply put a new blower motor in, but broke the connector. The connector was then rewired to a switch and the battery, where if you flicked the three throw switch you would get low, medium or high speeds. The car went to wholesale and was sold to a Buy Here Pay Here guy from Ohio at auction. I believe if IIRC it sold for around $3500. We all gathered around to marvel at such a rare sight. The second owner you could see he did replace bits and bobs here and there. The manual even had dates and what work was done in the notes section. I can guarantee if you take care of something and do the work yourself. Its probably not that bad. Looking for a diesel 3 series here in the US. I'm still a few months out from trading my current car so we will see what happens.

My F11 has exactly the same interior and mileage. Zero problems. Love it!

It’s no High mileage . It’s normal mileage. 🥊

My BMW 318D touring, N47 engine, has just ticked over a genuine 250000 miles. What's more incredible, is that it's on only its 2nd clutch.

I’ve had my 2011 bmw 5 series for over 6 years now done just over 140.000miles and still going strong . I love to upgrade but finding it hard to let it go

My younger brother got a 528i for his first car bout a year ago. Now has 130k miles on it and runs pretty good. Feel like the suspension could use a refresh but if you take care of these they tend to run great over time. Hope he ends up getting an M like me when he’s old enough lol. Bmw is a life long love story. 😂😄

I always buy higher millege cars as all the expensive parts are changed allready. Love these Beemers the only issue for me is they not 4wd.

Love them, just can't get away with the placement of the speed readout. Always had to crane my neck down to look behind the wheel at the needle. A digital one in the center would have been great

i want a f10 5 series 535i, really love the look

I still miss my 2016 520d a year and a half after parting ways. Top car.

chose an f10 535i over an s class and c class. definitely don't regret it😅

I found on the BMW forums an individual in the US with a 300k miles F10 535i. That's insane how reliable they can be with proper care.

gearbox service is a must on these ZF boxes as well

High mileage 😂

How’s the bmw 535i I’m looking into getting one but doing some research first

Do you have cruise control? Where you have the LIM button, on the F30 it has the ‘Set’ button to set the cruise control speed. It’s different on the F10 with a speed limiter button

I've got a BMW X5 2005 e53 4.8is 98k on it, 7 previous owners, spent 2k converting it to run on LPG, only 84p a litre, she purrs like a kitten!

Some thoughts about 2011-2013 520d automatic?

Mine on 191k miles still pulls like a train good engines

if chains been done WITH MAIN DEALER part otherwise they fail even sooner and DPF isnt clogged then yeah there brilliant

Personally I wouldn't as a daily drive for sure no. If you have money and it's for fun why not.

Having owned a F10 for 6 years it’s definitely worth picking up a higher mileage car provided it has full and regular service history, although the 530d will be more durable than the 520d as the 3.0d engine will be less stressed over the life of the vehicle and has less reliability issues. Just remember it will cost more to repair/maintain than a Ford mondeo!!

Yes is worth

Yes it's definently worth it!! My f31 318d n47n is on 220k miles, and pull alright still on stage 1 tune. And the interior is till great, there are some stone chips on the paint. . Howevere you should change the timing chain immeediatly. Other than that, the car as a whole is bulletproff.

Rather the 335 or 340 slightly newer. The n55 and b58s are beasts

high? bro mine is 299851 thats high

My 2010 F10 has 406k km and not a problem 😏

Trust me guys just trust me it isn’t worth it

What power steering pump ? It literally has electric steering

How does this compare to the w213 e class? I'm trying to decide between this and the w213

There about $22-30k around 70-80l miles for the M5. I'm thinking about it

Wich Engine

Get the n55 variant. (535i) N55 is the most reliable f10 as long as it was taken care of.

Duży przebieg?

I’m looking at a F10 535i how reliable are they?

There’s a 2011 about 4 hours away for $5.5k and it has 190-200k miles on it. Is it worth it? I’m afraid the motor will just give out in 5-10k miles

POV You use miles on a German 🇩🇪 we call this KILOMETER

Nice car. But to be honest, neither the leather nor (especially) the wheel are "spotless" ^^

Yeah diesel, not gas

Love my 530d f11, but the 2.0 lump makes the f11 feel like a Mondeo performance wise. Great for practicality and economy, but is lacklustre to do the chassis credibility.

47MPG???

I don’t get the point of getting a car this old beyond sheer nostalgia. No one outside of the car club will think you own a BMW (just the cheapest model with a big engine you could find). A brand new mainstream (non luxury) car seems way more appealing in nearly every aspect than a severely outdated odometer and infotainment system in this car. The leather seats maybe spotless but they looks like they died and came back from the underworld and the car looks like it’s been dragged 180K+ miles no matter how you want to see it. Of course with that said to each their own. All I am saying is that you’re not buying a BMW, you’re buying the perception of owning one as compensation of not being able to afford a current one.

If you gone buy high mileage f10 buy the one that comes with N57 engine

Jesus thats slooowwww

I can literally hear the crank case failure from hear as he says “this engine sounds ok”… either your ears don’t work or you have no clue.

That’s low mileage for that vehicle if regularly maintained. Period.

I can still tell its a 63 reg

I have a work car 2017 Toyota with 260k and the interior is quite bad and steering wheel feels like cheap rubber and is all flaking off🤢 I have a 2000 e46 and e92, both with 155k and the interior is in top condition and the steering wheel is nice to hold in both so BMW can't be that bad, the ride quality is also 10x better than the new Toyota. The japonese may have done a better job with mechanical longivity but BMW is unrivalled in all other areas

Completely worth it BMWs are reliable and go forever

When should I change the timing chain ⛓️ at the moment 97k mileage

Yes because they a very reliable car brand and never brake down what people don’t know is BMWs are actually the second most reliable car after Toyota Toyota is the most reliable then bmw

Don't even buy a low millage one with that engine👍😀

Is it worth it. FUCCCCCCC NOOOOO

High miles lol if that's what beamer reckons

😊

Is it worth if it has a knock problem?

177.000 es mucho km?...

Bmws are known for oil leaks. Love my 2014 bmw 535M. Germans got it going on but you would think they could figure out the gaskets in their vehicles.

そっちのやつなら有りでしょ.

300k+ is quite high millage not 180 😂

Not worth it, don't forget the crappy air suspension that will cost you £2100 to repair. It goes wrong on a regular basis, I know as I owned one.

N47 u mean

BMW, ok! Not 180k on Honda / Toyota / Nissan

My regular gas f10 535i is at 198k and still runs just as strong 💪🏽

That's not high miliege just do service and oil change good to go

I’m abt to buy a 2011 550i with 146k miles for 4k

NO NO HELL NO 😞👎😭

Bro FUCK NO I wouldn’t buy ANY bmw with anything over 20k miles hell no and did you hear the engine? I mean your head was right besides it it doesn’t sound good at all sounds like a ticking timing bomb quite literally

No don’t please no

This is not a m5

I kinda did, mine is 97,000 miles.

My 2019 1 series has done 7900 miles and I bought it 4 years ago

Don't do it, just don't.

All the bushes and suspension need changing . Clutch and flyweel most bearings on there way out. High milage cars stay away

F series is a crap of the car..

Was zum teufel ist eine Meile 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

520d are you joking 😂😂😂

never buy a car when in ad says 'woman owner' never

Don’t do it!!!!!

High mileage BMWs hahahah fuck nooooo
