There's this 2003 525i that's 1400 (140K) in my area. U still whipping that thing? How it run?

It ran good till I crashed it last year :mjcry:. I was on my way to work bout 3am and I hit some black ice :damn:. shyt spinned out and slammed into a curb. When I got out one of the rims was cracked. I changed the tire to the full size spare and as soon as I drove off it was like the steering wheel had a mind of its own :dahell::mindblown:. shyt was moving like a broken playstation control. Lucky I crashed only down the street from my house so I drove it to my house and parked it. Copped another whip the next day. Didn't feel like putting anymore money into a 23+ year old car :yeshrug:. Called a junkyard and they came and picked it up. :rip: 2013-2018

If it has more than 100k make sure the car doesn’t come equipped with a turbo/supercharger (lest those parts have been changed). It’s simpler to maintain an all motor car especially one with higher mileage. One that has forced induction is begging for a breakdown if its on its original part.

I have my a3 quattro with 194k on the clock and nothing’s major wrong with it. Like stated earlier if a car was maintained (and it’s not turbo or supercharged) then you won’t have much to worry about outside of normal maintenance items.
