Scared to buy my dream E92 LCI

Hi guys,

So I have been saving for over a year and finally have the funds to buy a E92 LCI coupe but all the timing chain issues have got me scared to invest!

I would choose another car but nothing appeals to me as much as the BMW, it's gorgeous!

Also I do very short journeys, school run and then park up near a station, so need decent mpg tbh if I get around 30 im fine with that. I hear the bigger engines are more stable but I won't have a chance to take her on the open road much so don't want to clog the engine buy not driving it enough.

So with the variables in mind, anyone have any advice?

I'm almost considering getting one with around 50k and with full service history and then changing the timing chain changed before it wrecks the engine, or even getting one and getting used car warranty.

Honestly I'm lost right now because it's the only car in price range I really want.

Any advice?



Regards,

Scorp
