About to buy CPO 07 4.8: Opinion needed on service history and price

I've spent the past few weeks reading through all of the archives to learn as much as possible. Great forum!!!

I am close to pulling the trigger on a 2007 4.8i CPO with the following specifications:

$42,400
Black Sapphire / Tan
29.5k miles
7/07 Build
3rd Row Seat
Premium Package
Premium Sound Package
Sport Package (19 inch wheels)
Technology Package

I requested the service history and it came back with the following (outside of normal maintenance)

2,502 miles: Fuel tank leakage diagnostic module DMTL / system permanent malfunction
3,947 miles: Fuel Filler Flap, fuel tank leaking
5,4888 miles: Idling quality uneven under all operating conditions
11,284 miles: Navigation CD/DVD destination input incorrect/incomplete/ reading
14,583 miles: Drive cable/cable (SHD panorama sunroof) cracked/broken/torn off
19,161 miles: Glove box poorly adapted/fitted; multifunctional steering wheel poor finish
21,285: Drive unit for power height adjustment of front seat permanent failure
28,843: Washer fluid reservoir, windscreen washer system leaking; Parking lamp/daytime running light (bulb/led) permanent failure

I will do a PPI if I decide to move forward with the purchase. The car seems to be in great condition to my eye.

Should the service history concern me? Does it seem like a fair deal?

Thanks in advance. Looking forward to becoming a contributor to the forum at some point.
