True, but that's why it's at my local BMW dealer getting certified at the moment.
An FYI for everybody; I'm sure you all know that under full maintenance, even if your green bars don't indicate that it's time to bring your car in for maintenance, you're entitled to one "low mileage annual oil change" (there's an SIB out there somewhere for it). In order for a car to be certified pre-owned, there has to be at least one oil change done annually. Unfortunately, since this X5 I have now was never drive, there was only one oil change done, approximately 1.5 years into ownership. Since it doesn't meet the criteria for certification, BMW has asked the shop to pull the valve covers off and take pictures of the insides, I'm assuming to show there is no gunk inside the engine. How they don't just certify a car with 83 miles is beyond me.
