Default High mileage e61 & e60 535xi 6MT

Hey all, so I'm looking to get an e60/61 535 or 550i (but I've heard that V8 isn't worth it) and I've found two examples near me.

There's a 2008 e60 535xi with 122K km going for about 9K USD, and a 2010 e61 535xi with 181K km going for 13K USD. Both are manual, and have claimed to replace the hpfp and lpfp within the last 3 years, as well as the water pump. Spark plugs have been changed in 2014 for both, and the e61 comes with a set of rims and winter tires. What do you guys think I should do, go for one of them? or wait and see other examples (if I even should)

​​​​​​My bad forgot to mention the year; the e60 is a 2008 model and the e61 is a 2010 model.

Love the E61, especially with 6MT. My E60 535xi has 215,000km and runs like new. 2010 is the last year and has a better iDrive interface. I'd pay a small premium for lower kms, but wouldn't really sweat the 181k.
