Now chargeable, but at least you get the correct information.

www.cartextcheck.co.uk

or pretty sure the AA offer a service on their web site, costs about a fiver I think?

EDIT: Now £25 for 5 checks, or £20 for one!!!! Bargain eh

(Thats providing you want the car's history of registrations, finance agreements owed, colour changes, insurance claims, etc..) - If the car doesn't have the BMW history I would be walking away already!

Ahhh, you want the build spec, not the history then?

I got mine via my selling dealer. Shows all options fitted etc.

Dave,

Your car has "Cop Control" Sounds very useful :-)

Dr Dave · 07-26-2009, 01:58 PM

Which I was told was "Coil on Plug" which was a tad difficult to believe as mines a diesel!

just note that a lot of dealers don't update things on the computer all the time. I had a real ballache with my last car because of this.
