I disagree completely. I just sacked my favorite car of all time (2001 BMW 740i) because maintenance was becoming too much for what I was willing to pay (2k-3k a year). I had it 4 years and it had 120k miles when I sold it.
Same goes for my 1995 BMW 530i. At the time, my mechanic even told me that it was probably time for another car (and it only had 140k on it).

BMW plastic radiators have a bad rep.
