9k seems a good price. The mileage is raising a concern for me. 80k seems very low. A 330d would have been a traffic car which I’d have expected to have done 180-250k miles before being taken off fleet.

As others have said, police cars are driven hard and with no mechanical sympathy. I’ve jumped into a frozen car and as soon as the windscreen is clear, driven it hard on blues not waiting for it to warm up nicely. I’ve also driven at speed down deeply rutted farm tracks where we were taking off and then bottoming out.

Personally I wouldn’t touch an ex-police car but if you get it checked over beforehand, go into it with your eyes open and it’s a good price then I can understand why you might want to.
