Should I buy a BMW?

I recently found a BMW with 43,000 miles on it, in good condition and I was wondering if I should purchase it and what to expect from the car once it picks up some more mileage.

I love beamers, great cars, they last, of course knowing a good mechanic for any import also helps on our days; i never had many problems with my 83 320i but then again we do most of the work needed in our garage.

1988????i wouldnt buy any car 20 yrs old. no abs, no airbags, no way. it must have been driven to church on sunday by a little old attorney.
Lets face it, the car is old and old cars are much closer to needig repairs -- very expensive repairs in the case of a BMW. Personally, I think the car is too old. Better to buy a newer 5 series.
yes i bought one had 36000 great car this is number 6 they are not cheap to work on
I would use CarFax to run a check on it - and if the results look OK, maybe $3000. Does it need tires? When were oxygen sensors last installed? Were the fluids changed? How about the brake pads? How about the brake rotors? It is a nice car with such low miles. The only major problem I can think of is the catalytic converter. At 43,000 miles the engine and trans should be OK for a long time.
Not a 7 series unless you are a good mechanic, plus the parts are hard to come by and expensive for the older ones. Never buy a euro car without service records.
get matience orders, also chk for damage, tires...etc.
