Update: The car is in my hands now!

Flew over to Alabama saturday morning and was met by the seller, Peter of EuroStyle Motors. He took me back to his house from where he operates the business and had the car waiting for inspection. I spent just under two hours looking over the vehicle in 52º, misting-rain weather. It was completely worth it though and after taking a test drive, the vehicle was indeed in excellent condition.

Settled up with Peter, filled up the tank with premium (I rather like AL fuel prices) and was on my way back home. All in all, a great experience!

I'll just quickly comment of Peter from EuroStyle Motors. He's incredibly knowledgeable on high-end vehicles and anything he has in inventory ( has 4-7 cars at any given time) is topnotch. His has standards that rival (from what I've seen here) most other members' on this forum. This should sum it up: when going to examine the X5, he had printed out the paperwork that China Town had posted above regarding service records. Plain and simply, I would buy another vehicle from him in a heartbeat. Look for his eBay store 'eurostylemotors.'

Thanks also to China Town (Jon) for providing me some really good info and helping to make the purchase easier.

Attached are a couple lacking pics. The weather was lousy so I just pulled the car right into the garage. I happen to think front seats are a good indicator, albeit one of many, of vehicle condition. You be the judge!

See also paint cond on hood and mileage. Will of course get better pics up over the weekend when its clean.
