Sure you can wait for a low mile one, but how many low mile e91 335i's are there?

If it's an N55, you can not worry about pretty much everything quoted above, except perhaps the waterpump, as BMW can't seem to make a robust cooling system if their business depended on it.
Quite frankly, if the comment about the "slight play" was from the MOT station, I'd take that with a large pinch of salt anyway - some places feel they have to write something in the advisories box regardless.
Personally, if the condition of the car meets your expectations and standards, I think a 1 owner from new car with full BMWSH is always a better option than a multiple owner, slightly lower mileage one.
