That is tough. Even with the mileage on mine, still has a lot of punch. A good bulk of the miles have been on long hauls on the highway. Original owner had a 40 or 50 mile one way commute. Similar with me - clients scattered around the Bay Area. Plus at least 8 or 9 round trips to WA state with Craigslist carpool riders -- about 13 to 14 K right there.
Aye, and we were 20 miles above the Arctic circle in a remote corner of Finland. At least 700 miles to even a trace of real civilization, and we throws a rod in our 325i. Some kind of serious racket so we had to limp home keeping it under 80 kph the whole way. Rebuilt it - still runs at 463K.
