Often BMW dlrs are reluctant to offer up the history, for some unknown reason(s)...
and, if they 'run the key' in their service gizmo reader, it will show all recorded work done by any BMW dlr.

The only way I'd to it is if you can a) turn a wrench and b) the price was a steal ($10k or under).

I'm not too mechanically inclined, but keep in mind I have a mercedes ml. I take it to a shop that works on bmws and such at a good price. Also, I believe the values are about the same, so with trading in I don't think I'd be paying much more. I just really like the style much more, the little extra features, and the ride quality of the X5.

I figured I'd do a little update since my obsession with the X5 has grown haha. It's currently parked in my drive way, I'm borrowing it for the day since they allowed me to get it checked out by my mechanic. He said he's had several customers with the X5 and this one looks really clean, he also said he'd go for it. The only issue he found is the driver's window regulator is about to go, which I'm going to bring up when I return it tonight. Hopefully they'll fix it or lower the price a little more. If everything goes well, I'll be buying it tonight!
