Looking at Used 740i

Hi,

I'm looking at a 2000 740i with about 148,000 miles. I realize it has some miles on it. I also realize that if it's well maintained, it should be a decent deal. I already have a 2012 328i, but am looking for something to drive back and forth to work so I don't rack up the miles on it.

I would appreciate it if anyone could give me any advice on what to look for as far as problems that have or could be developing. I seems from what I have looked at the car seems in decent shape.

Any advice from the experts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

Dont even bother. A car like the one you described will bankrupt you with repairs. That generation was full electrical problems. Get used to seeing the check engine light.

You've been warned.
