1992 730i help needed

[neilr]

Hi, ive been offered a 1992 730i (auto) with 111k on the clock for a good price, its been well looked after (ive seen the car but wont drive it until later today). Does anyone have any suggestions as to what i should lookout for? Ive heard the cam lobes can have a high wear rate, is this true?

Also, is it unrealistic to excpect 22-23mpg if not driven at warp-speed everywhere?

Thanks,

Neil

I used to have a 90G 530 (manual), which I bought at 111K and sold at 163K 2.5 yrs later, still running sweetly and smoothly.

I don't know about engines, but 1st service after 110K seems to be expensive on BMs.

Mine averaged 25mpg over the time I had it, with up to 31mpg at 75-80ish on long runs
