Relieved they could not find a single scoring mark or scratch on the crank surfaces.
Mine's a 2006, 178926km (111179miles) car.
Bought it at 154000km's, so I don't know the details of that distance other than it's been well serviced at BMW according to the service stamps/receipts.
During my time i've done 4 trackdays in total.
Paid 16177kr for the job (about 1463£)
In no particular order (got all in a bag):

Will run in for c:a 1200miles under 4000rpm.
Workshop (Bo&Jimmy's in Gothenburg, Sweden) claim I don't need to change oil after that but advise oil change each 10000km's maximum (which I always done anyway).
With that wear would be a good idea to get clearances checked. Don't worry too much if you didnt but would have been a good to have.
