Buying a BMW? My 4 Tips Help You Buy a Reliable BMW

Buying a BMW? My 4 Tips Help You Buy a Reliable BMW

Listen, it's easy to go out and buy a BMW. Any person can go and purchase a car (as long as they have the credit or the cash, that is). However, if you'd like to ensure that you have a great, reliable BMW, well then you need to look at things a little differently. I give you 4 tips in this video to make sure you end up with a #reliable #BMW.

Research - Obviously, you need to start with some research to make sure you understand the big issues with the different BMW models you're looking at. Don't stop until you understand what you can and can't live with.

Inspection - This is true when you're buying any used car. Make sure you get it inspected whether or not you're buying it with the dealer. Anyone who says you can't take the car elsewhere to have an independent inspection is hiding something. Just do it.

Satisfy your Curiosity - Make sure you ask every question you have in your head. Simply put, don't settle for getting half the story.

Keep It Simple - You don't need every feature on the planet in your car, do you? Do you need the extra horsepower, or do you need to get a little better reliability out of your car? If you're looking for reliability, stay a little on the lower end of the scale in terms of features.

I would also advise buying used bmw with high millage and full service history rather then low millage one. Chances are, most of the known common faulty and worn parts will have already been changed and it shows that the car has been looked after and reliable. Anything between 90- 100k and you’ll soon be spending lots of money on maintenance.

I bought a 2011 328i 3 months ago. The car is clean inside and out and the guy had meticulous service records with it when he traded it in. You can tell when someone truly loved their car. It runs like a new car. The only thing on it that is upgraded, is the sound system which is all Kenwood. Oh and it is the cold weather package

My X3 has 213k, I took 3 325is to 150k (and sold), 330Ci to 140k, and just bought a used F30 335i. No fear, all have been fantastically reliable.

This was very general and applies to any used car I was looking specifically for BMW info

I bought my first BMW last week! 2011 328i Xdrive with 87k miles! I’m in love with it! I’m a fan for life!

Buy a '94 Celica and glue BMW-logo's on it.

Did a lot of research on my 2015 F06 BMW 650xi Gran Coupe m-sport, found that it had the motor revised to eliminate a lot of the problems in the previous iteration of the motor. Lots of reviews and it has a lot of positive reviews and any who complained about things were cosmetics not mechanical. The car had/ has a high original cost so many didn’t buy it most went with a 5 series instead of the 6 series. Most who have them usually don’t sell them. Anyways good video, keep rockin’!

Your channel has one of the best content on youtube for a performance car.

This advice certainly applies to ANY used car, not necessarily just BMW.

The most fun car I ever had was a manual E36 328i. I've kept it for 18 years, good performance, decent fuel consumption, excellent drivability, very reliable. From the time BMW produced cars that lasted beyond the warranty.

Just bought a 2016 340x 3 weeks ago from a particular and i love this car so far. My first bmw. Thanks for the channel.

I just bought an all original 2011 328I xdrive e90 n51 last week with 164, 000mi on the clock. The engine runs strong with no oil leaks. It is a 2-owner car with a maintenance service history and unmodded. Car runs like a Swiss watch. I see know problem getting 300kmi out of it. The 2 previous owners took good care of it. I would never buy a brand new BMW unless I have money to throw away.

[Mrbfgray]

Maintenance RECORDS and ONE previous owner!

[jayjaylucky]

Hey Folks all cars has a maintenance problem After 5 years, for me I don’t care at all important I enjoy my BMW X3 2019 xdrive 30i ! Life is too short

[volvo]

over 100k miles, the timing chain really needs to be looked at. also, the tensioners and guides for the timing chain are made of PLASTIC!!! if you do a timing chain, do the water pump while u have all the belts off

Hi Mark,

I am about to get a BMW 2015 X5, GAS powered, it has around 60km on it . Is it recommended to buy the extended warranty ifI want to keep it for the next 4 years ?

This channel is great, i have learned so much. I am ready to buy my next bmw.

[tyjohnson]

Great video! I think you may have changed my mind on the M6 I was about to buy. Thinking the 650i is good enough. Thanks!

Hey brother I just recently bought the Twin Turbo 535i 2010 and I bought it based on trust, I got to admit it the car looks perfectly in good condition and it only has 60k miles, now my question to you what should I do to maintain it so it could last a while, and what may I should replace or check on etc..
