    Hi,

    I have spoken to the guy today and the car is under the company name but he is more than happy for the bankers draught to be made out the the company and not himself. So everything looks above board. He has even said that when I go to pick the car up he will meet me at the company premesis to do the deal there. I have agreed a price and will be picking the car up later in the week. I will obviously be carrying out a HPI check (only £7 on ebay) and getting an independant inspection done before the deal is concluded (but thats another thread).

    Thankyou all for the input and for setting my mind at rest.

    Cheers,

    Pete.


    glad to help you Pete.

    Don't forget to factor in some parts for your BMW that you will need from the dealer.

    It is an ex-company 3 series BMW it probably does not have any mirrors.
    Alos you must check out the electrics well. On the model you are looking at buying the indicators never seem to work and the foglights seem to be permenantly on. Also, check out the tracking. Most BMW's seem to track to lane 3 of the motorway, and only leave that lane when they have spotted their junction 3 inches before they vere across all 3 lanes of the motor way.3dbiggrin3.gif

    Only kidding, enjoy your new car.
