Not X5 related but ....

OK, I already have an X5 but I am planning to get a new (used) BMW next week, it's going to be either an X3 (3.0d, 2005, about 120,000 km) or an 320d, 330d (late 2005 or 2006), or a 530d.

My question is:

Since it is quite common for the sellers in the country I am buying from (Bulgaria) to alter the mileage shown on the dashboard, is there a way to check the real mileage of the car, using the well-known programs? If yes, which one and where do I check it?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Yes, BMW scanner software 1.4.0 will display the mileage when you plug in. Another tip is to beware of any clusters that show a red dot next to the km reading - that indicates it has been tampered with.
