Bmw 5 series touring 2019

[kayrace]

After good 8 years of driving honda frv, I am now interested in buying BMW 5 series touring 2019, 50,000 miles on the clock. Please, can anyone  advise me  on the reliability of the 5 series touring and what I should look out for when I go to view the car?

Thanking you  in advance for anticipation of your reply.

Welcome to the Forum

Most of my experience with 5 series has been with my brother in-law cars he is on number 5.

All his cars have been owned from new and  covered 150k+ before trade in for the next. he has it serviced by BMW to their schedule (mainly to ensure they accept it as a trade in) but in between we carry out additional oil changes and take care of any niggles. There have been a few well publicised faults over the years which BMW have mostly fixed.

Your car a 50k with a full history should be fine, my personal feelings are extended service intervals do not help a cars life which is why we carry out interim service's on his cars as I do on my own.

Check its history and make sure all recalls have been attended to make sure everything works as it should. Then drive it and enjoy it
