58K on mine now. Bought on 49K in Feb 2015. Did 5.5K in the first year, including a trip into Europe.

She gets used for decent trips but finding it hard to get her out of the garage these days. She is a keeper though.

More or less everything has been replaced with the exception of gearbox, bonnet, roof and seats.

First few years (up to 100k miles) it wasn’t covered under a BMW Insured warranty, then it was down to me to pay for repairs/maintenance.

It’s had about 4 oil services every year, inspection 1/2 every year, a few accident repairs, lots of brake pads & tyres (although I get 20k rear and 40k front out of the Michelin PSS), clutch & flywheel at 140k. It wasn’t also treated to new suspension all round at about 130k (Bilstein B16/PSS10), a Gruppe-M intake and Rogue Diablo exhausts.

If you use it, it will need ongoing maintenance, but the clutch & flywheel was the only unexpected bill.
Trigger’s Z4MC
Some bits now over 163,000 miles, some less than 1,000 miles.
Individual Ruby Black, Individual extended champagne leather, plus many options
