Hi all

Im in the process of changing from my IS200 to something a bit smaller, in seen a 116 advertised, iv been to see this car, its a 2005 (05) 35,000 miles, its an independant local dealer, who has no service book for said car, however has reciepts/invoices etc. its up for £6995

Is there anyway of checking if this car has a service history? as iv read around that there is a centralised BMW system that holds records?

The registration is NU05 XAE

Any help would be greatley appreciated

Why bother?? That doesn't sound that cheap for a car with no service book.

You can call BMW UK and ask where it was seen, then call said dealers and see what they saw it for and what the mileage was when they saw it.

Do a cheap HPI for a £5 first, if it comes back saying last known mileage was 100,000 miles you know to walk.

Does it feel brand new? It should do, if it feels tired then I would walk.
