She already has 200k, and has been properly maintained throughout her life. Think I can get another 50k out of her?How many more miles do you think a 1997 BMW 528i has left in it?Take your BMW and flip it over on its roof. Look on the bottom of the car, just behind the firewall on the driver's side. There you will find a date stamped into the sheet metal. On this date the vehicle will suffer a catastrophic mechanical failure and you will need tow it to the salvage yard.
Seriously, don't flip your BMW on its roof. Last time I looked, vehicles did not have expiration dates.
It's a crap shoot with any old vehicle, foreign or domestic.
The older the vehicle is, the more likelihood you will have mechanical issues. It is unrealistic to expect any 14 year old vehicle, domestic or foreign, to be trouble free.
It can depend on how well the previous owner(s) maintained the vehicle. If it was well maintained chances are better that there will be fewer problems. If the vehicle was neglected chances are you will have more problems.
It can also depend on how the previous owner(s) used the vehicle. If it was driven normally chances are that it will last longer. If the previous owner(s) beat the crap out of it chances are it won't last much longer.
It also depends on how well you maintain and drive the vehicle. Take care of it and don't abuse it and chances are you will have less problems. Neglect it and beat the crap out of it and don't expect it to last long.
There are far too many variables for anyone to give an accurate answer to a question like this. Try this. Pick a number. Any number. It will be just as accurate as any wild guess given here.How many more miles do you think a 1997 BMW 528i has left in it?No one can tell you exactly how many miles a used car will last. I would say that the AVERAGE well maintained car should be expected to go at least 250K miles, but there are always exceptions. Good Luck!How many more miles do you think a 1997 BMW 528i has left in it?That is impossible to answer
