520d Service Intervals

Hi All,

I'm after a 520d and seen what seems that perfect car in terms of spec, only concern is the service history intervals knowing about the timing chain issues.
02/12/13 - 19796 full service Cooper BMW
03/02/15 - 36128 full service Cooper BMW
01/12/15 - 41768 vehicle inspection/ Service Cooper
23/08/16 - 47273 full service Cooper BMW
13/11/18 - 68107 full service Cooper BMW

Would 17-20k between services be seen as a high risk? Car is a 62 plate and a Semi-Auto.

Thanks in advance

17-20k is what BMW recommend

It's reasonably low miles for a 62 plate car, if you can stretch to one which is a 63 or newer you'd enjoy the car more as it will be an LCI/facelift

My own car is serviced at 17-20k intervals by BMW but also gets an oil change 9k after each dealer service by the independent I use just to look after the turbo.

Good luck with your search!
