Is this 318D worth buying?

Old account owner from when I had a 2009 Z4 SDrive 35i back in the day. Still miss the acceleration of that beast!

Anyway, my OH is looking at this 318D Exclusive Edition for work (so will start adding a fair few miles to it)

https://www.chromemotors.co.uk/used-...ckport-2235035

Is the issue of the Cam Chain less so on this (age) model? Being registered March 2012?

It's had annual regular servicing at the following miles 13k, 20k, 26k, 34k, 40k and 46k miles (it's now on just short of 48,000)

Is it less of an issue with a well serviced car?

Can I buy an extended warrany to cover this? (seen chat on BabyBeemers site saying AA and Warranty Direct have previously covered replacing cam chain and tensioners)

Any tips? Advice? What to look for?

Thanks
