I owned one BMW, and never again. It was fun to drive, but way to many small annoying things went wrong with it from the fan clutch, oil leaks, power stearing fluid leak, radiator leak, electric window control arm x2, and fuel pump out. I only had it for two years and it was a nightmare. Traded it in for a prius, wanted something dependable while I was finishing school. Here, I am still driving the Prius 180,000 miles later.

I was looking for an old mid 2000s Jaguar to have as a daily driver. I never knew how nightmarish it is to maintain the electronics, I do know that the 4.2 v8, the 4.0 inline 6 engines are great. The 3.0 v6 engines are from ford but still reliable. But I failed looking for one, due to almost everyone having an issue, except for one, but it was in a really shady dealer which I avoided after one visit. I ended up with a Lincoln town car, the crown Victoria is really good too, you cannot beat a classic

Dude, Jaguars are known for being the most unreliable vehicles ever made. Glad you went with the old Lincoln though.

I sold my 2013 335i to buy a 2004 m3 because I enjoy the more simple car to take car of haha

Me too - I traded in my 3 series with the twin turbo n54 engine for the same car with the much simpler and more reliable n52 engine. Yes, it is slower but just as much fun and much easier to work on and very reliable.

Love my cx5

[@chrispark9343]

Never had any trouble with my BMW 320D in the 10 years I have owned it. And I have run flats. Just a couple of wheel sensors have needed replacing. Granted spare parts can be expensive but don’t believe some of the crap you here about them

Man who working at the plant snitched to a famous youtuber? Im pretty sure i recognize that BMW too 🤣

[@AbcDef-iq4no]

I wouldn't touch any Nissan made after 2000 because they all end up having bad transmissions.

my 1 year old toyota corolla hardly used ac had to be replaced also

[@arunphillips6977]

As a European, I can never understand the fascination and obsession with BMW, what is the big deal please? They are terrible in the snow and ice, oil leaks aplenty, plastic engine parts, constant issues with engine mgmt lights, overrpriced parts and service, and so on and on and on? Someone please explain? To me BMW's have always been just a slightly better than average car, not quite at Mercs level, but above most other European brands.

_"It has an MG-42 too under the hood"_ 😂🤣😂🤣🔫

Scotty, there is a guy in Europe with a Giulia with the same engine as this that has done 300,000 miles with not a single problem. And they are usually more straight forward to work on than German cars. I dont know why people are scared to work on these. Just because it looks exotic doesn't mean it's difficult.

Those cars made in Germany/Europe hold up better than weather in U.S

@@jessewynne8193 All Alfas are made in Italy. I had an Alfa living in the east coast with over 400,000 miles on it. Garaged it's whole life so no rust. I was planning on driving it to a million miles until someone in a Dodge Challenger rear ended me at a stop sign. The engine still ran and sounded so smooth.

I currently have a 2017 V6 Accord with almost 300,000 miles. Never needed any repairs and has been incredible in every way. Next I am considering the Honda HR-V, because I have a kid now. I don't like the EV direction Honda is going in. Toyota has the better idea of focusing on hybrids. My next car might be my last Honda :(

[@miguelvega7769]

My 2010 bmw x5 xdrive30i has over 250k miles, easy to work on parts are always there and ORIGINAL MOTOR AND TRANNY, folks don’t do maintenance and preventive maintenance and wait until they vehicle damn near died to now repair 😂

[@OgMcFaded]

[@blondescorpion8940]
