Im the opposite.....keeping the miles low and hoping there will be a financial reward somewhere. Problem is its in the garage and its too easy to sorn it and when it it taxed to avoid using it if the weather is bad. It wouldnt do for us all to be the same though. The is a part of me that would fancy an M135i to use daily in a year or so, just dont want to part with anything.

Best to get a really low miles low owner immaculate one as garage queen
Then an average miles great condition one so you can drive it like you stole it everywhere with a stereo upgrade to BOSE or something and possibly AP Racing brakes, subframe reinforcement IMO

76k miles in mine and I'm the second owner. I've owned it 3 years and done 33k in it, no plans to sell, ever!

50k, owned it 4 years and driven around 21000 joy filled miles. It's just been detailed had a few warranty jobs but they wont cover the clutch, I'm getting slur. So that's the next job for the new year, that along with sitting at the tail pipes with some autosol. I do occasional think about selling, got very close to that a few years ago for personal reasons but realistically I think the car will be with me for a very long time.

28k
Moved it only a few yards today from one garage to another but sitiing there just made me smile
The car is mint and whilst I shall be unlikely to put on many miles each year I have promised myself it will come out next year for a drive or two.
