Buying a rental 330i

Hello guys,
I found one of the 2019 G20 330i very well spec’d, based on my personal taste:
portimao blue, M sport package with m sport suspension, 19” wheels, live cockpit professional ,adaptive led ,harman kardon)
The car has around 34000 km (21000 miles). It should be still under warranty (not sure is it till 2021 or 2022)

Aa per seller it has been used as a long term rent where contract is singed with one person, but am not to convinced in this.
The car is abroad so not sure if i will be able to see it before purchase, as per pictures it looks really good.
It is cheaper maybe around 3000 euros compared to other preowned cars similary spec’d and with lower mileage and around 5000 eur compared on market in my country.
Is this car worth considered? When thinking how this car is hypothetically driven by clients, i dont feel good? Can it be beaten with this mileage?

Thanks for the advices

I wish we had those seats in the US market and it is odd to see the M340i grille on a 330i. Are there any issues with registration, taxes, or warranty transfer bringing a car in from Hungary?

Yes i like these seats more, these are base option for m sport and m340i and Vernasca leather you have to pay additonally.
Regarding import ,it should be straightforward , maybe there is option to pay net price in HU, then you have to pay VAT and that is it.

Personally, I would not touch it unless the savings are really substantial. Just my preference.

Not worth the savings, keep hunting

Not worth saving only 3000 , wait and continue to search for the right car IMHO.

Also always ask to have a PPI (pre-purchase inspection) performed on any car, even if you can drive it, maintenance on these cars are expensive

+1 most of them have been ragged. Like the valet at the Fairmont in Newport Beach.
