[QUOTE="Zonefinder, post: 249027, member: 7622"] Lancelot, if you are getting car from an existing owner or 2nd hand car dealer, u can request for car to be sent for full diagnostic and check up with a trusted workshop. Request for full service history if local unit but foreign non reg units probably have none. Imported non reg units may also have some compatibility issues eg radio frequencies for Jap units, manuals in Jap if at all available, no camera sensors though some may have sun roofs...you'll find a lot of literature on this in forum. AB pre-owned will normally be at least 2005/6 but not older E60s. Getting from them will give you added comfort that unit would have undergone full check up and may even have some unexpired warranty and service/maintenance leftover. One additional advantage from AB is that their units are all hot weather versions. The other gurus can add on further... My 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
