    yeah, me too, but he did say that it could not be verified, and unverifiable mileage lowers the value of a car immensly, so I will have to go by the condition of the car...

      Run a carfax. While its not a garuantee, it should be able to pick up any roll-backs since its based on VIN when resold or inspected.

        While the price maybe cheap he did not state where he is from. They may hold a lower resale value in the area due to maybe no Dealer to work on it, etc etc.

        Have it inspected by a reputeable shop and split the differance with the shop if he wants the sale he'll buy off on it. It should give you a piece of mind and help him with the sale.

              Does anyone know where to find some info on the 320i? I got a lead on one, very clean and under $1000.

                Yahoo groups has a pretty good forum for those. Not sure what the address is but its worth a search on their site to find it. I'm sure anyone there would be willing to get you the info you need.

                If you're willing to travel to Maryland, I'd be able to get you into a 325is for a fair price.
