Acquiring a 335D

[OmahaKnot]

Seeking to purchase a 2017 BMW 335D for less than $20,000. All possess approximately 70,000 to 80,000 miles on the odometer. Should I be very concerned about timing chain problems?
Should I simply confront the challenge and proceed?

I will correct that for you.

I would be more apprehensive regarding the low mileage, which is quite uncommon for a diesel vehicle. Firstly, individuals typically purchase them for higher mileage. Secondly, I would seek evidence of the mileage, such as MOT records, invoices, or signs of wear on interior components.It is possible that a mileage blocker has been installed; examine all screws utilised for its installation and removal. Assess the wear on the brake pads in relation to the mileage driven; at 20,000 miles, it is conceivable that the original pads are still intact, as well as possibly the tires. These are a few aspects to scrutinise; it may be legitimate, but it is prudent to exercise caution.Obtain a scan from ISTA; I believe miles are integrated into some modules.

It appears you have misinterpreted the information; the original poster is seeking to purchase for £20,000, not 20,000 miles.

£20,000 for a nine-year-old BMW F series diesel with 70,000 to 80,000 km is astonishing.
After driving it for two years and accumulating over 100,000 miles, what would its value be?


The F series is becoming somewhat outdated.I would contemplate a 330d from the G series...just my two cents.

The price of 335s has been unchanged for the past three years. My value remains equivalent to that of three years prior. Electric vehicles are culpable, and this is beginning to impact all internal combustion engine vehicles.

[Lovelyas]

I acknowledge that; but, with the forthcoming BMW model release, the prices of the F series are likely to decline imminently.

New diesel vehicles are now prohibited. Non-hybrid petrol engines will be succeeded by all internal combustion engines.

Does 20,000 refer to miles or price?

[spartan]

I comprehended the amount as £20,000 and the miles as 70,000 to 80,000.
I would be concerned if a nine-year-old diesel vehicle had only 20,000 miles.alarm bells
