How many miles do you put into your car before you say, the mileage is X and I need to get a new car? Do you drive your car to the ground? Do you say when my car hits so many miles, I’ll get a new one? Do you just just keep fixing what is broken and full steam ahead?
My friend had an X5 with I want to say either 250k or maybe 300k before he finally broke down and retired the bucket for a newer one. I don’t remember how the old his car was but he does drive a lot. For reference, he bought a 2022 X5 and already has over 80K miles. Again, he drives a lot of work. The only reason he even bought a new one was because his mechanic refused to continue to work on his old car, LOL.
I have a 2018 and I’m coming up to 80K probably by the end of year. Still runs great with no issues aside the regular maintenance needed. Sometimes I think I want to trade it in for a new one, then I say no, I’m run this bad boy into the ground.
Just got me thinking what every other BMW owner does when you begin to get into the high mileage.
I have one 10 years only put 40k miles on it. E46. Still haven’t sold it even though I got an x3 m40i. I will keep the x3 5-7 years since the repairs seem like a nightmare. The e46 was easy to work on. I’ll probably sell it because it irritates my wife. But it’s psychological. We’ve been thru a lot.
