How should you take care of a BMW?

I recently bought a used BMW that’s in impeccable condition, and I want to keep it that way for as long as possible. What are the best ways to take care of my BMW?

Congratulations on your new-to-you
BMW
! Finding a used car in impeccable condition is rare, so it’s understandable you want to take excellent care of it.
To take care of your BMW and ensure it stays in great condition, you should:
  • Follow a
    basic car maintenance schedule
    to keep the engine running smoothly
  • Keep the car in the shade whenever possible to prevent UV damage to the interior and exterior of the vehicle
  • Regularly clean the car, both inside and outside, to get rid of dirt and other particles that can cause damage over time. Using wax on the exterior is also recommended
  • Protect the interior using products specifically designed for the interior material
  • Drive consciously and carefully to avoid unnecessary wear and tear on the vehicle
  • Use premium-unleaded fuel
While the above are great ways to keep your vehicle running and looking new, the best way to take care of a BMW is to be a responsible driver by staying attentive and avoiding potentially dangerous situations.
