Thoughts on this vehicle
 
Test drove this vehicle today. Drove great but concerned about the mileage. Should I pull the trigger?

IMHO, 125k (15k /yr) doesn't seem too bad as long as all required (or incidental) maintenance was kept up.

It has the first gen B58 (B58B30M0). If the oil change history does not show changing it every 5k-7k pass on it. Ideally you'd want a second gen (B58B30M1). Don't get me wrong the B58 is a beast but there's updates you'd want and not have to deal with the first gen issues. The plastic oil pump being the main thing to worry about vs having the metal one. VANOS solenoids clogging and having to remove and clean replacing the gasket (rear of the engine). I have a B58TU (2022) with real low miles. Make sure you check Carfax and BMW service record to get the whole picture before buying. Message me if you want the dealer service records as BMW will not let you get it. Just need VIN
