What should I look for in a used BMW 6 Series?
The 6 Series is a long, wide and heavy car, so check its extremities for any signs of obvious bodywork damage that might have been picked up in tight car parks. Check the alloy wheels for kerb damage, too. It’s worth making sure that all electronically adjusting seats work well, and that the folding hood goes up and down without any glitches. There are lots of electrical gizmos on the 6 Series, so check all are working as they should.
