Any ideas on this vehicle history report?

BobKingerman · 02-04-2011, 08:00 PM

I was able to get a free autocheck on my car that I purchased earlier this year and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what it was used for. Originally I thought it was a lease turn in because it was three years after the in service date but it looks like it was sold at auction less than six months after the in service date (1/31/07). There were no problems whatsoever in the service history, just routine maintenance so it couldn't have been a buyback.

Buy back is different then a lemon. I'm pretty sure it still leaves a clean title. You need the BMW service report.

Honestly, it looks like it started life as a demo. Then continued a life of hardship. Poor bmw.. it was like a foster child.

I got the service history and it was all routine maintenance except for one minor thing. Still on the original fuel pump and everything. It could have been a demo but it has a lot of nice options and saddle brown interior which led me to believe it was custom ordered.

demo then sold to a dealer. used for whatever method (possibly sold, I'm betting used by the dealer owner though) then sold to an auction.

pretty simple, nothing to be alarmed about
