Need your opinions please?

He guys I'm looking at buying a BMW 530D touring as my daily driver and wondered what the opinions were of this particular one I found, price, year, milage, etc:

Hopefully some of you may have some experience and a better idea than me?

Mileage does seem rather high for 10K

 

Cheers Mr P, I'm very edgy about cars that people have messed with (obviously present company excluded, besides you've gone way beyond 'messed with')

 

Just found this one that looks a little more like it:

Yeah that looks good, nice low miles, Very nice cars them, only thing that puts me off one is the fact i like to have 4wd for my daily driver.

Yeah I hear you Jamie. I really need a diesel estate though which limits me to Audi A4/A6 (which seem to fetch a rather hefty premium) or a Jag maybe?

Audi Allroad? 2.7tdi Quattro, granted not as pretty as the E60 but a more practical car, the amount of bmw's i see stranded in the snow today puts me off buying another.
