I have a 2008 128i, not sure of the production date as i bought used, but i believe i had to replace the original at 140k km (89k Milkes), and it cost about $1400 CAD (1.1k US)

Mine decided to go on a hill on my way to school. thankfully about 10 minutes or less away from my dealership. Although thanks to the forums here i immediately new what it was, and tried to drive there. Could only go in intervals of about half a mile then would overheat. My solution was to keep dumping my water into the coolant reservoir to make it there and sit on the side of the road for 5 - 10 minutes. Took me almost an hour to get there but we made it without a tow truck.

Seems to be a lot worse for some than others when it goes.
