which number are you using for that Nigel?

 

BMW customer service number off their website. They'll give you some bs about confidentiality, but on the cars I have looked at they have always backed down. They'll give you some broad details and they will tell you which dealers it has been in to. Obviously armed with this info you can then phone up the dealers and ask them more specific questions about the work done.

 

The main cust service folks will tell you when it was serviced and most recent stuff will be on their computer. Prior services are held locally at the servicing dealer, so call them direct for info. All were happy to run through the history and what was done at each service for me.

FWIWW

 

Pete...your advice is as always, fantastic.

Spent the afternoon in the place, going over the books. All seems in order and the car is in brilliant nick.

Checked with Parkers and the price is pretty spot on. Checked the bodywork carefully and there's not a dent or scratch. Engine bay's very clean.

When I get it, I'll post pics.

 

Cut and pasted.

Nige...thanks mate.

 

Did you buy it then San? The pics are on the website you can paste them from there.

 

Picking it up tomorrow. They feel so solid.

I think we need a 5 series forum to rival the Porker forum.

 

Cool, looks nice

Anything feels solid if you compare to a Honda

 

Unless it is French

you will find they are very well put together and give a nice feeling of security
