Reviews for trader shows they took in an X3 with an oil leak in January. Anything to worry about? Reckon it’s the same one?

Are the 3 litres any better?

Only looking to spend under £8k so won’t get anything newer than 2012 in budget.

As mentioned above it ended up being a complete dog. Engine rattling horribly.

Go for something like this if your budget is £8k. No point trying to get an end of life premium brand at that budget imo. These cars are a touch older than the BMW but much lower mileage and overall simiplier cars to maintain.
