What to watch for
Engine Health: The M21 diesel engine is robust but high-mileage units may suffer from injector wear or turbocharger issues. Listen for excessive knocking or blue smoke.
Rust: Check the wheel arches, sills, and floor pans for corrosion, as rust is a common issue for vehicles of this era.
Electronics: Inspect the dashboard gauges, lights, and window switches, as wiring harnesses in older BMWs can become brittle.
Suspension: Check for worn bushings and ball joints, which affect handling and tire wear on older rear-wheel-drive sedans.
