High Mileage BMW's

High Mileage BMW's
I've seen a few 325/328/330 coupes (E46 shape) that are very well priced.
But, they seem to have high mileage (60 - 100K).
They come with all the toys -(leather, climate control, electric seats, traction control, etc) and most have full service history.
Heard that a BMW will go for miles (200K+). Is this correct? Is there anything to worry about when buying a BMW that is high mileage?
Any forums I should check out?
Cheers.

Servicing wise, I had an E36 M3 and had it serviced by a BMW specialist in Sheffield. Once the car gets to 75k plus in mileage the value is negligeable with respect to servicing. Just remember there are 3 levels of service.
Oil service - roughly every 10/12k or 12 months - the car will tell you when its due ;-)
Inspection 1
Inspection 2
The inspections alternate so eg: year 1 = oil inspection, year 2 = inspection 1, year 3 = oil service, year 4 = inspection 2 etc.
Seriously good cars mate, i'd go for the 330 if poss, lot of performance for such a heavy car.
