Looking for a 335D e91 touring ?

I have found one I like but it’s has 123,000 miles on the clock ?!? Is this too high ?

It has FSH and some other work done on it.

Is there anything I should be wary of ?

Thanks

Age, service history and maintenance records?

What's the spec?

Do you have a link?

These cars are fairly solid but it's all key that they're looked after properly. Deffo not a car to be run on a shoestring budget

Read my thread. That mileage isn’t high. If the car has any original suspension it will be worn out (despite passing MOTs, dealer inspections etc.)

Also sorry to spam the feed.

A MOT from a couple of years ago it did mention about misting on the suspension.

Mine blocked the dpf with no swirl flaps and wouldn’t regen. properly without them. There were two other 335d E91s for sale recently on eBay. The one in the add seems to have extra dark tinted glass, wind deflectors too.

That looks a good motor; it's only a year younger than my pals E91 330D and has 10k miles less than his; his has been faultless bar the usual suspects (EGR and DPF related IIRC and think the fuel pump went too)

He's replaced all the suspension himself with OEM shocks but Eibach springs and he runs ATE brake discs & pads all round

The interior in the linked 335D looks good; I like that contrast cool

go for it, I have the petrol 335 and it is fantastic, mine is in 160k, 15 years old and still a lovely thing.
