Bmw 335i, good price, but vandalized?

LFISGD · 11-27-2010, 03:29 PM

So i found a beautiful monaco blue with premium/beige leather..

http://reports.carproof.net/view_rep...CB1590A029A61B

That is the carproof report, the price is very good where i'm from (Toronto, Canada) 31K CDN, and it would probably be about 38K if it was from BMW certified pre-owned since it only has 43,000 kms.

My question is what does 3200 in vandalism really mean? if i take it to a bmw dealer mechanic and its ok should i go ahead and buy it? I was told BMW won't buy cars with 3K or more damage and resell as a CPO, which is prolly why its so cheap.

Also, the service history indicate a lot of servicings, is this normal? Can someone check the VIN on this for me?

THANKS!

Service averaging every ~3000km for 2 years straight, then someone put 13,000km on the car in 2 months between 11/09 and 1/2010.. ?

Maybe I'm not doing my km to mi conversion right, but that sounds very fishy to me.

Maybe you like fish, I don't know.

I wouldn't buy it with my money.
