Should I buy a high mileage BMW 740e?
I am considering a BMW 740e, and have found one with 137,000 miles for £23,000. I usually gamble on cheaper higher mileage cars and have never been bitten too badly by them. Is this a reasonable price in the current inflated market? Other than general maintenance costs, are there any specific, expensive problems that this car is likely to face as it ages?

Sounds like a fair price, we've not had any reports of issues with the 7 Series – but that's most likely because it's relatively rare. That said, we do know of a recall that you can read about, here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/bmw/7-series-g11g12-...d
I'd suggest asking a BMW forum for advice on problem areas and it's always good to buy a car with a full service history.
