Hi guys I’m picking up a 2014 M5 this car has full bmwfsh but comes with 49000 miles should I be worried about the amount of miles ??

[anonymous-user]

No

[Vel2005]

I hope not thanks.

Isn’t it a bit late to be asking this if you’ve already bought it?

The engine has a system that will flag a service at 50k miles no matter what. This service includes suspension oil so be prepared to pay 1-2k

Depends how much you paid for it, how it was driven and how well it’s been maintained and serviced.

And you’ll only know two of those for certain.

Just enjoy the new car.

I’ve not parted with any money yet that’s why I’m asking the car is £36400

It's not crazy mileage, but there are likely to be lower mileage cars around at that price.

I bought a 64 plate car a year ago, with 6k miles. There were quite a lot of others sub <10k. Price is quite mileage dependent on these cars.

It’s a proper competition with every extra on st what do I do lol.

Buy it.

It's a good purchase. The miles are fine. Ensure you have warranty.

This. If the cars mint and has all the options you’d want then it’s the car for you. It’s an M5 so there will always be bills even on a good one.

[Vel2005]

Thank you guys for getting back to me.

OK. That explains it. It's still a BMW, just a little more expensive for the bits.

49k miles is not an issue mechanically and you are still in BMW extended warranty territory. I think this starts to get more limited after 60k, so you should probably look into that.

[Vel2005]

Maybe I’ll try get some money off this car or walk away.

So you're picking it up today, which indicates a deal has been done and NOW you want to go back and chip the dealer? On what basis? Because you're suddenly worried about mileage?

I'd be prepared to be told to f**k off in whatever terms the dealer decides to put it.

Pretty much that.

The time to negotiate is before placing your order. People who try this at handover usually get one response from us, cancelled deal and returned deposit, less an adjustment for the fact that the car has now been taxed in your name and an additional owner added to the V5C whilst it remains in stock, which gives subsequent prospects big worries and makes it harder to sell.

If it's not taxed in your name however (more common as with used cars it's part of handover, done live on DVLA website and the customer pays themselves), full deposit back and we'll put it back up for sale.

What have you signed? Did you read it first?

You've made that up. May be correct, but you've still made it up

[Vel2005]

No deal is done if I like it I can take it way today

[KTF]

How did it go? Did you pick it up or try to renegotiate?
