Checking BMW car history - Is there a phone number?

[BeanCounter1980]

90% sure gonna buy a Z4 i have seen. I have the reg number. But i want to verify it all legit etc..

I got stung by a main mercedes dealer when i bought an E-class. The car was clocked....

I never want to go through that again!

You could try one of the many car history check websites - such as the RAC, the AA, Experian, HPI, Equifax.

Alternatively you could call BMW's customer service line at £1/minute - although they only have the history of cars that remain within the dealer servicing network and can't tell you about MOTs or accidents.

Let me have the reg number and I will check it for you. If you check the service history thread you will that I've done a few!!!!!

Worth a look as it's free, you only need the reg and v5 ref number on the front of the v5 document - 10/11 digits iirc.
