Shows just how well and long the cars can run for with proper maintenance. Pretty impressed almost up to a quarter of a million.

Only a salvage yard would buy it for maybe 5 grand and that's highly optimistic.

It's way overpriced thats for sure, there are ones with half the mileage for around that price. Impressive that it got up to such a high mileage.

There are a few now about to hit or already over 300k. As long as you keep up with maintenance they will keep rolling, but so do most cars.. at least E70s are worth it.

BMW knows how to build I6 engines for sure.

Way overpriced.....

I have an 07 4.8 with 197500 on it. All routine maintenance done, new gaskets and seals everywhere, motor mounts, suspension bits, brakes. Runs like new. I’m definitely shooting for 300k, maybe more.

Holy smokes !!

Gives me hope for my 113K, 2011 X5 50i

I doubt many e70s will see 300k, mainly because only the masochist will be willing to spend more than the purchase price in maintenance to get it there. I suspect less than 1% of all e70s made. Most of these go to the junk yard when all the oil seals and valve stems need replacement. Basically they’re totaled when they aren’t maintained because the cost of maintenance is greater than their value. But bmw engines and transmissions seem to hold up relatively well beyond the typical 150k miles that’s the design spec for most vehicles.

I do have a vehicle with 328,000 miles on it. It’s a ford F-450 with a 7.3l powerstroke. I’m expecting it will run 500-700k miles, as most of these seem to. Seen plenty with over 600k miles... but it’s a low stress engine, it makes 235hp with a turbo and 7.3l. Lol.

Lots of ford excursions in this range, though stay away from the 6.0. https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing

246k on this 35D. You could probably get this for a steal since it has the engine light on...

There was a 2012 x5 diesel for sale recently with 284,000 miles, ad is down so it might've sold.
