BOUGHT A 89 325I CAR LOOKED GREAT ENGINE SPOTLESS 76K CLAIMED MILEAGE . A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR I WAS DETAILING IT AND LOOKED IN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND FOUND THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD WRITTEN EVERYTHING HE HAD DONE TO THE CAR UP UNTIL 110K MILES. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED CARFAX (SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE) AND FOUND OUT THAT THE CAR HAD 150K MILES A MONTH BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR AT AN AUCTION. I BROUGHT THE CARFAX REPORT TO THE USED CAR DEALER AND GOT MY $5500 DOLLARS BACK AND REGISTRATION FEES ALSO.

I NOW OWN A 1990 325IS 79K ACTUAL MILES CARFAX VERIFIED.
