Congrats on the milestone! Here's to another 200k

Pretty impressive. My 2008 328 has 42,000. I love the car, and I plan to keep it for a long time. Thanks for sharing, and continue racking up those miles.

thats awesome! I would keep it forever maybe when you get it to 1,000,000 miles BMW will buy it from you and stick it in their museum and give you a free car.

Congrats only 84000 miles to go to beat my M3 convertible I sold to a friend a few months ago. Running perfect OCI per BMW up until I pulled the head to check valves and top end. Waste of time didn't need anything but put new valves and springs in.
Key to getting to this mileage is long drives at freeway speeds. Also it helps if you live in a climate that is mild which the OPs isn't. BMWs last a long time if cared for and driven enought to completely warm everything up. In fact virtually any car will last a long time doing that. Nice tribute to OP. I too don't sell my cars until they have significant years >12 or miles >200K and sold mine for slightly less than the going rate and had multiple buyers. Sold it to a friend in case he has any issues I can help him out. |

160 mile commute! That's freakin insane. I wouldn't be able to do that everyday, unless maybe I was a race car driver. No wonder you got to 200k so easily.

This is awesome! I have a e90 N52 as well but automatic, still at 67K.
Quite a fit to be able to record all that info (every fill up!). I second that BMW would prolly want to buy this car from you to analyze it. |
