Top 5 Most Reliable BMW’s You Can Buy! | Reliable BMW'S 

You know, I would definitely grab the e30 🙏

Very informative, but the constant background music was painful.

2007 BMW 328i....299k miles on it all original and runs like a champ basic maintenance and it's my daily .....

I'd say you could go with pretty much anything from the late 80s to mid 90s. The golden era, modern enough, high on luxury, but still not too complex, and still made from "more oldschool" and sturdy materials. I couldnt name a single engine/modell in the lineup back then what was bad. M30, M50, M52, M60, M70, heck even the M51 diesel was great. That means e30, e31, e32, e34, e36, and early e38 and e39. Great cars, i had most of them in the last few years, except the v12, and i just cant complain. I still have my m60 40i, 350k on the clock, and its still fine. I wouldnt go though with any newer cars, vanos issues, chain guide issues, transmission issues, its just too expensive in the long run. My e34 for example was a winter car, drove it for 2 years, WITHOUT maintenance, and then sold it, it was still fine. My old e38 (2.8 m52) i had for 3 years, no problems there, one waterpump was replaced and thats all, rest is normal maintenance. The e38 i have now, (the m60), i have for 5 years now, and i havent touched the engine yet, only maintenance (oil changes and so on). I also had e36, m50 engine, for 3-4 years, nothing went wrong besides a water pump, and that was like $30. E32 with the old inline 6, massive engine, just maintain it, adjust the valves every now and then, and it goes forever. I'd never go with a newer car, lets say 2000 and upwards, including the e46. It just has a lot of problems, maybe the engine is still good, but the subframe issues, and general rust problems overshadow that. Older are just better in every way. Yes, its important to buy one it the first place wat was taken care of, these are about 30 year old cars, so if its in bad shape it doesnt matter how good it could be.

Great work and resesrch! Thanks for making this

Now this is the best guide for BMW fans.

really miss those old BMWs. its the older ones that got me into german, or atleast euro.

Keep up the good work ❤️

That was very helpful. The nicest BMW for balance and ride I've ever driven was the 90's 5 series. Can't remember exactly which one, but I remember the ride...WOW! Any advice on the best year?

Hey guys, im looking to buy my first car and i want it to be a BMW. I have found a 2008 bmw 316i ( e90 i believe, as its sedan?). its got 116.000 Km on it and has a price of about 10.800 euros. I dont want to go over 1600-1800cc as the yearly "traffic fees"(?) are way higher after that. its from a dealer shop which was recommended to me by a BMW dealership. Black color with Beige interior and sunroof. I'm in love with it, the only thing i dont know is if its reliable / if it would need alot of fixing. any idea? I've also been looking at a 2013 bmw 114i with 120.000 Km on it with about the same price. I dont know which one is more reliable as a first car to not have a lot of fixing cost after buying it... Both have a service book ofcourse. Thanks in Advance!

I have been thinking about buying a BMW but do not know which model suits me with poor economy what do you prefer sir??

Noice videoo, can’t wait for more videoss especially the fitness oness

Thank you sir🤝🏽

M44 engine... don't forget. Thanks for this video, i love my old bimmer's

I own a 1992 bmw E36 325i and a 1998 bmw E39 540i. both non Vanos which is even more reliable. Also both manual transmission.

I have a 1992 bmw 318i black convertible and omg i am in love with it

Really love the e90

The E34 came with the M20B20/B25, M50B20/B25 and the M30B35. Also the older waterpumps in the M20 engines are more reliable than the ones in the M50 as the M50 has a waterpump with plastic fins...

Is a 316i worth buying for 2-4K with around 120 000 miles

Thanks I've been in the market for one

97/98 e39. 528i with a 5 speed manual and the iron block M 52 is the best BMW for reliability/luxury with solid performance period. Also would rank e36 M3 right there with it

What about the reliability of M51 &M57?

Too bad the the e60 quality is totally trash because that's the best looking 5 series ever!!

What do y’all think of a 98 750i

Please do a Audi vs Mercedes’ reliability !

What you recommend that's reliable and under 20k$ I was lookin at the 325 328 and 330 , did some research and people say those tend to be more reliable but i'm just 18 yrs old and i want a nice fun good looking car 😂

No mention of the E39 which is considered the best 5 of all time

Love the 335i

My old e46 got 330k miles. No check engine light. Sold it and got an e92 n55.

You dates on some of these cars is wrong.... but good video

What about an alpina m5?

Honestly as a recommendation to anyone buying a bmw don’t buy one with turbos or v8 models if you don’t have to. 25/30i’s of most series are your best bet regardless of the year compared to the turbo/v8 counterparts

Better effects and Logo

What is the car in the thumbnail?

Hey automotive, I was looking for a old bmw but not too old some where around 2007-2009… I found this 6 series for 15k with 95k miles on it but just not sure if i should go with it. Please help me out on this decision.

My 2005 E46 M3 is at 120,000 miles with its original engine. I’m the 2nd owner of the car I bought it at 100,000 miles. Myself and the previous owner have never abused the engine and all of our service records are accounted for.

How much would a e46 330i with around 90,000 miles cost in the uk?

Saying the inline six in the E36 is very similar to the E30 with the M20 is pretty bs. A shit ton more plastic in the E36 engine. Them being NA Inline six the only thing they got in common

Scotty begs to disagree 😂

The most reliable bmw is the one under lease. Coz you expect them to run especially under warranty or else just return it

I need a 4 door

I love e34s

You don’t by a BMW for reliability, you buy a BMW for the way it drives.

3:53 328 and 325 exact difference is 5 hp there is another important number (torque) and you really suggest people get 20 + years old cars... lol and most of them are with safety rating 2- good luck. From your suggestion will stick MAYBE ONLY to 335i but direct injection ahhhh maybe no...

i work almost 23 years on the m60/m62 i give u a advice If u have no Experience dont buy any bmw v8 /m60,m62 :)

All BMWs, actually all cars, can last 400k miles. just keep putting tons of money in them and they will last.

I have a 2003 325xi 😅🏎

e21 is reliable too gaha m10 power

U should've make music louder

278 000 miles *

I had a 2007 bmw 335i, idc I fucking loved that car

I don’t know. The presenter was wearing a black shirt with a Jaguar logo on it. Lol

Good video - but music distracts what you are saying!

Decent video and very knowledgeable presenter but the music is absolutely horrible and takes a lot away from your presentation.

I prefer a new car thanks

Bmws easy to work on just gotta know what ur doing

E46

Whats wrong with the 335i coupe? They're unreliable? Lol

*I been driving BMW for over 25 years I had own 4 of them all 3 series, and I will say stay away from the 335i* 😎

Basically saying reliable bmw - buy 30 year old car 😬 Well thats great 🤨👍🏻

Music….no.

at this point i just call the bmw the sentinel from gta

Yeah german cars are fun to drive but everyone knows that japanese cars are the reliable ones to drive without a extensive service

At 7:07 why would you/how could you confuse an E34 and E39.....

What about the e39

The background music is horrific and distracting.

Watched for 2m, not listening to chipmunks

Music makes it unwatchable

How about 07 328i e9x

Funny how the n54 is on here but the n55 is more reliable 😂😂 f30 n55 is better

Painful music interferes with his voice - get RID of it man!

This would be 100% better with %0.1 of the edits..

😳😳😳😳

Please get rid of that cheap cheesy background music!

Just curious who’s ignorant

E series. Every car. No thanks.
