I'm after quite a particular and high spec M4.
Have been trawling extensively through the market to find.

Come across one that pretty much fits the bill but there's a big but as above per title ^^

Higher mileage than I would have liked and than I was previously looking for.
I am told full service history though.

Is this a good call bargain or a bad call, trick money trap..

I am torn and would be grateful for informed advice from owners/those in the know with experience of higher mileage F80s etc.

What would people do / recommend?

Thank you.

Depends on how long you keep it and how many miles you drive annually.

As a long term perspective, it is fine, but you may suffer if you want to flip it shortly, and if you add a lot of miles to it.

If you've only got 27£k then it seems to be about the price point for the mileage at least on A.trader (so not a rip off) and that's only 14k miles (at the most) p/a so possibly motorway miles, which aren't so hard?

Have a close look and see what servicing it's had and whether that corroborates the usage. e.g. a higher mileage to the oil services.

But unless you're willing to post the ad of the car, I can't see why it's so special, other than an individual color and/or full leather as there are lots with the key tech. HUD, HK and a little bit more than £27k, say £28,500 and you're at a lower mileage Approved Used car.

So on the limited info, I'd say nay.
