Expected lifetime of air suspension parts

Hi,

I’m looking at a 2014 D4 with 120k. It’s still on all original suspension. Is there an expected lifetime (in age or miles) of the suspension parts, and if so how much roughly should I budget for imminent repairs?

Thanks!
Matt

How long is a piece of string - depends on the vehicle and use.

My car is a 2007 with 200,000km and everything is original except for a compressor rebuild.

Air suspension is great, the bags etc last for a decent time, no tunusual to have trucks on original air bags wih a million km on the clock.
It is always the control system that lets any air suspension system down.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Unfortunately I missed this one -- it had sold before I could get to see it but great info to have anyway.
