What's your mileage?

Experience varies - I don't think you'll get much insight from anecdotes. In studies, BMWs aren't among the most reliable or the least reliable; they are at the bottom of the top 10 or so. Some models (for example, with V8 engines) are worse than others. One problem is that modern BMWs tend to be difficult and expensive to repair.

If you want to buy and hold for a long time, you should look at Lexus. Audi has also been close to the top in recent years, but they are also a real pain to fix when they go bad.
