A whole lot of miles for a car that's been in service only 18 months. It was also registered as a commercial vehicle! [In NJ ordinarily used for a business]

That said, ask for complete service records and warranty work that was completed. Carfax is clean but carfax has been known to miss stuff. For example there is a one year gap and one service record in the report. There should have been at least 3 services completed during the time it was driven. Maybe the owner never stopped long enough to have an oil change ?!?

yeah, miles are kinda high, but that's a really nice car. I'm sure I'd rack up some miles too if I had that. Good luck.

If it is a BMW CPO, it may be a decent deal... The build date on that car is 12/07 so you may have a few more months longer than 18...

I would definatly do it if you could get it under 30K...This is one of the lowest '08's out there right now...

If no proof of oil changes or maint, keep a few pounds of $20s around for repairs.
