With 180k on it things like the air compressor, suspension struts and just normal bushes will be needing doing at some point in the next few years.

Thanks for the advice, sounds like it may be worth taking a second look at the car (checking the areas you have indicated carefully).

Ziggy, I am just approaching 180k on mine (4.4 Petrol BMW V and had no real probs. It's not the mileage, it's how well it's been looked after.

Thanks, that's quite reassuring. Given that, I think I've almost decided on getting the car subject to a final look over tomorrow in daylight.

You see ... you never really needed the word "Potential" in the thread title - once you are hooked - you are hooked.

There is no escape . . . .then again why would you want to. What doesn't kill you is just bidding it's time. |

Well I went and had another really good look over her and spent a good hour and a half including using a borrowed code reader to check for any error codes. There were a couple of old ones which we cleared and then checked again after the test drive and they didn't recur.
