I've just bought a 2002 320i - its got full BMW service history but this is via service history print-out as there no book with dealer stamps. I've got 7 days to take it back to the garage for a refund so before this is up want to check that its legitimate - anybody know how I can check it??

The service printout shows

16233 - at 16233 Cooper Banstead
29697 - at 16233 Cooper Banstead
44562 - at 15150 North Oxford
61388 - at 15150 North Oxford

Its done 70k miles now and shows that it is due another service in about 6k miles.

The reg is RJ02HHU.

Can anyone advise?

The mileages are at regular intervals so you could assume it was in for a service each time and that same printout should give the dates. If you want a duplicate book with the stamps you could go to your local dealer for the blank book and then visit/post it to the other two and ask for them to stamp it. They could also tell you if any other work was done to the car.
