How many miles does your 7 series have? Just bought a 98 740i and about to hit 200,000 miles. Am I good for a while?

Thanks! :)

214,065 on the clock. I can't really speak to the longevity of the V8 powered E38 but If it has been taken care of by the previous owner(s) meaning it was serviced on a regular basis and repairs did not go unattended to for long periods of time, you should be in good shape. Although, for me, 200k seems to be the magical number for suspension repairs to pop up.

at that milege you have just broken her in.

some one buy her before she hits 100k

:(

Approaching 63k here. Bought her in Feb with 56. Also received the warranty replacement Alusil block at some point in it's young life. Not sure when that was though because I have been unable to obtain the BMW service records.

just turned 80,000 this week 98 740I

85k on my Sep 2001 model, 9k of that since I bought it in March.

Almost 162K, much less on the engine and drivetrain.:cool

I love threads like these because now I realize that my old E32 7s havent been drivin much.

The 740 when I got rid of it had 203K miles on it with a warrenty block replacel due to Nasikil at 70K miles. The 750 has 185K miles and it is about to get a manual trany.

146k 97 740IL

2001 740iL 84,xxx
2001 750iL 39,xxx Is this the "mileage baby" for '01?

2001 740iL Sport - 91,000

Been driving her hard lately, especially hard with the new Strong Struts on. :alright
Would love to get her past the 200,000 mark in the condition she's in now with the what I make her do for me.:spank

Just passed 91k on mine.

2001 740i Sport...split time with another car (beater)

99 750IL just hit 995xx

138.xxx

Just passed 107,000mi in my 99 750iL. It's my daily driver, and drives as nicely as the day I bought it (with 56,000). Probably better.

Like Swordsman, I'm headed for 200,000 on the V-12!

-pd.

03/94 with 180,000, and still kicking. I guess thats what about 3K in work over the last year will do for ya :)

Just breakin in my 98 iL with 89,500. Runs great, but I would love better MPG. Only getting about 14 overall.

Well, it's nice to hear some of these higher mileage "7s" doing ok. I've got 90,xxx on my 99' 740iL.

I put an average of 10-11K miles a year so I'm hoping to get another 40-50K trouble free (:D) miles. I do have an Acura Legend that I might use more often in the winter time just to keep some miles off......we'll see.

I'm a lowly 92,8xx. This thread makes me feel good :D

94,xxx on my '94

Hey we have kinda the same cars. I had a 98 mercedes C230 w/the AMG package installed and I have a 98 740.

Just passed 35k. Time to change my sig. :D

98 with 138k miles

1998 740iL - 81,7xx miles. Loving every minute of my daily commute.

98 750 w/78k Great car!!!

My 222k+ might be inaccurate. Apparently when the speedo isn't working the odometer isn't working. The speedo cuts out frequently sometimes for a few miles sometimes for just a couple seconds.

apparently you also have good taste in cars! :)

1994 with 113k..

just bought a 2000 735 with 45k

Just took my '99 750iL on its first road trip, so its got 77.xxx on it now. We got over 500 miles on a tank and 20 mpg. Lovin it.

when i picked my car up on thursday i managed a 34mpg (imperial gallon) average on the way home 135 miles, including some traffic, seems nearer 17-19 round town though, seems fairly economical for the size car.

By the time I traded my car in it had 117xxx miles. Last 10K of those were really troublesome :(

My 2000 740i has 74000 miles on it.

One E23 has over 278k, the other has over 98k.

Just drove to Boston and wandered about up there, so tacked on about 1500 in just a few days for a total of 1463xxx.

small 60k on my 740i

2001 740 IL. 101,000.. Still runs strong. But, I really really baby,my baby. haha

79,664 here.

Is there a typo there? Or did you really mean 1 million 463 thousand odd miles? :D

Yea, drop an x. 165k miles. Hehe, but I hope she survives that long!

I spent most of my time in North Chelmsford, but came to the city to wander about and be touristy :)
