Buying a E90 M3 with 100000km on the clock

Hello M3 gurus!

I'm looking to buy a E90 M3 from '07 with 100000Km on the clock. What are some of the things to really watch out for on an M3? I own a 335i and my HPFP busted and the turbos aswell. Luckily all replaced under warranty.

Please give me some first hand feedback

How does the warranty work over in The Netherlands? If you can buy extended warranty which would cover the drive train + transmission I'd say go for it.. I know ///M's are expensive over there and the taxes and such, most people aren't aware of this so will tell you to buy new but at the end of the day it's an award winning vehicle, most will never have any problems in the life of the vehicle, or if you're me you'll get a blown engine 6 weeks in but hey that's life.

Good luck with the car

60k miles over 5 years is not bad, if you can get an extended warranty I will highly recommend as BMW do break every now and then and when they do, they break your bank.

good luck
