I really love those kind of stories. Seeing someone who actually uses these cars everyday is absolutely amazing 👍. And futhermore it shows, that regular maintenance is the key. If you keep everything tidy even a car like the E92 M3 can be just as reliable as any other vehicle.

What a hero, we need more Tony’s in this world! 👍

Fellow high mileage E92 M3 owner here, mine's at 190, 000 miles. Love seeing these cars getting used!

I like Tony, He seems like a nice chap! My m3 has 108, 000 on it and it’s quite reassuring that Tony’s has 225k on it, Just shows how well built they are

I met Tony @ evolve when he had the plen fitted. Absolutely top bloke. Staff said it was one of the best maintained M3s they had seen. Top drawer Tony

It's inspiring to see Tony's M3, mine being at 104k miles right now, I want to be like Tony when older, keep this car running for as long as I can! Maintenance is everything

My e92 m3 is on 128000. Still drives like new with plenty of power and amazing v8 engine sound.

Recently sold mine at 160k. Also still on the original clutch despite track use/European tours etc. I had the rod bearings done and they were absolutely fine. Internet scaremongering it seems. These are great for miles, itll forever be a mystery to me why people get so hung up on mileage.

[FastDriver]

Tony seems like a lovely chap! This car just proves "Look after a car, and it will look after you"!

[yksierra]

My E92 has 127k and feels as tight as the low mileage ones I looked at. Great chassis and is aging beautifully cosmetically.

[BeckyEvans]

This is cool, a proper owner. Gives me faith in mine at just shy of 90k! Great video.

[nolanmichael]

My 2009 E90 M3 has 170k miles on it and this video made me so damn excited for the future of my car! Due diligence is absolute key on these cars. Treat it right and it will treat you right.

[TheJammydodgerjj]

The maintenance is incredible but how has he kept the seats in such great condition too?!

[FROOB]

The fact that this is on the original clutch, to me, shows how a car can last when it's treated right. Great bloke & story!

[seanpaul]

Next video - E92 gets cleaned for the first time in 15 years 😭

[captainsidewinder]

Almost been to the moon which is 234, 000 miles away Gowan lad my ls400 got 1, 100, 000 miles and counting, regular on time maintenance and regular scheduled periodic inspections are the key just like aircraft have and other complex machines, milage is just a number

[fomo..]

You had me at ipod 😂😂, im going to get ribbed for this but I still run all my music from my ipod classic in my car now 😂😂😂

[andybee]

Good maintenance and serviced regularly, and using the same dealership from day 1 is smart move as he's built up that relationship and most importantly the trust in mechanics who know the car inside out by now. And like most vehicles if they not abused or thrashed within a inch of it's life then regularly find they will last donkeys years. doubt it's ever been bounced off the limiter or the brakes stamped on and glowing😮, I'd happily buy this m3👍

[johncreedon]

Had 2 E92s. One of the greatest cars ever built. What a machine.

[mman]

132, 000 with original rod bearings. I did have the clutch changed out at 125, 000, just as a preventative maintenance measure. 2008, sedan, 6 speed. 2nd gear @ 8200 rpm is pure joy. Purchased it in 2012, used with 50K miles. Usually maintenance issues with throttle body.
