There's a check list link in my signature which may be of use.
Don't forget the service record and the all important 'first ///M service' at 1500 miles - good luck :thumbsup:
 
M@r]{,

Just had a look at this dealers website - no location given, viewing by appointment only. May be me just me being suspicous. BUT never really happy when a dealer isn't prepared to advertise their exact location. minimum of 8 months MOT - would want a full and recent 12 months if I was going to purchase.

As ever 'buyer beware.....'

Edit:
Just followed the directions on Google Earth from the dealers website and shows the location as The Pride of Punjab Restaurant in Spencer Street Keighley.....which is in a residential area. :!:
 
Thanks Alan. I've talked to him on the phone and had regular email contact with me badgering him for info. I don't get a negative feeling from him.

The info on that link in your sig is very useful, I'll print out off and take it with me. I'm going to ask him for the vin number before I go, see if I can find out what options it has. Strange though, he told me Bmw couldn't tell him if it had DSP added?? Maybe he just didn't try?
 
Get the last 7 digits of the VIN and you can look it up online easily enough :thumbsup:

Ruby black is my fav colour and the best combo here too.

There was some discussion about this car earlier, check the paint carefully for swirls and defects and the history too..
 
If this is Keighley Motor Sport be very wary - they have an extremely bad rep from posts on here in the past - as AlanJ says, buyer beware :!:
 
Those pictures don't look like ruby black - looks like sapphire black to me - there doesn't seem to be any 'ruby' in them at all.

Might just be my eyes though.

Should look like this (in close up, with nice lighting)...

No its not Keighly Motor Sport. Automotive Cars? Spoke to him on the phone again this morning really nice guy. Aparently he called BMW yesterday and didn't get anywhere. I suspect he may not be that good with this interweb thingy :wink: We'll see, I'll keep an open mind. Just about to leave so keep your fingers crossed :driving:

Well, if you're going to buy any 'penis extension', then you don't want a floppy one :P

Okay... Saw that, but dodgy dealer, rebranded on the interweb because of bad press, no proper location details... Just a thought, as it's near Keighley. Still worth going to see.
 
There's a plate under the...err...boner, IIRC on the offside suspension tower which will give the paint code and name.
 
Just done a quick check on the website and the domain registrant's address is listed as Unit 3g, Aireworth Mills, Aireworth Road Keighley West Yorkshire BD21 4DH, so don't know if that address is known to anyone or if it rings any alarm bells to anyone?
