So a E61 520d with 185k miles on the clock is a bad idea? Haven't seen it in person, but from the listing it seems to be a well looked after car + it's had most of the classic problems fixed (rear wiper, compressor for self levelling, cable through hatch, etc)
On a w124 it wouldn't be any problems at all if well looked after
The diesels appear to have more engine issues (timing chain, turbo, swirl flaps, fuel pump, depending on model) but I think the high milers will have already had that stuff sorted.
