Rejected it due to service history or lack of that came to light.

...Which explains why no pics ever materialised. As has already been said, the process is pretty tedious but the grin at the end of it all will be worth everything :D Good luck.

Exactly, the minute I found out I put it in the garage and didn't even look at it again until I returned it to the dealer.

Hopefully putting a deposit down on one tomorrow after a few points have been verified.
 
You did not sound OCD when I just saw you.

Obsessive, yes, not OCD :rofl:

1200 mile service fine
21000 Inspection 1
42000 Inspection 1
49000 Inspection 2
No oil services between the inspections?

BTW if it's cheap I reckon the one with 2,500 miles for the running-in service would be OK. It's not like it's been left to 20k miles, is it?
 
It's funny, the few cars I know of where the engine has gone bang have all had full BMW service histories including the 1200 mile one but I don't know of any cars that haven't had the 1200 mile service have any major engine issues. The Z4MC that I know has the highest mileage (122K last April) didn't have the 1200 mile and never saw a BMW garage since the day it was sold.

Does anyone know of examples that break this pattern?

Is it this one?

Just called and there's zero service history. Not cheap enough to be worth the gamble, for me.

That service history seems familiar :|
I'm surprised they can sell it with that history as an AUC.
