I've seen an ad for a 1995 525 in the "cheapie classifieds" recently (kijiji, which is like craigslist). The car has 250,000 km on it (~155k miles). The guy's only asking $2k it (Canadian), which seems reasonable according to Edmunds. That being said, I don't think I've ever seen a car with that much mileage on it. How long are E34s supposed to last, assuming proper maintenance has been followed? Should I even be considering this? Is it likely to cost more to maintain annually than to buy?
