Smac01 12 Report post Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Yeah I went a few weeks ago. Few touched up stone chips on the front, but relatively tidy. Brake rotors and pads look like they were recently changed. No service history at all, and he knows nothing about if the cooling system has had any work done. No obvious coolant leaks though. He wanted $15,500 when I looked which was too high considering kms and lack of history. Edit: headlights were pretty crazed too.

speedyg 16 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 Thanks guys, I ended up getting it for $12500. Hope it's all ok, I swore I'd never buy a BMW without getting it checked, but fingers crossed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got to sell my 530i sedan before I do anything. I will first swap the silver interior trim from sedan into wagon I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smac01 12 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 Good buy at that price I reckon - I offered the guy 15k when I went and saw it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
