I've got my eye on an E36 3 series and am interested to know anything about it's history to date.

you have to phone a number for their 'dedicated team'
so dedicated that you have to pay £1 a minute to talk to them
i'm not sharing the number because it's a fking shameless scam

I'll share the number, as I suspect you're old enough to make your own decisions on how you spend up to £2! It's 0906 209001.

Whilst it's a shame that BMW charges for the service, the value gained from having access to a centralised database of records to my mind far exceeds a couple of quid on your phone bill. A similar service from Audi saved me thousands a few years ago, as I found out that an S4 with a full stamped Audi history had actually been clocked by 70k miles and given a false service book.
