I was about to buy a Red 325i e30 and from the pictures it looks great but it is a complete mess please read:
Inquired about purchasing a 1988 BMW 325i. From the looks the car is amazing. Now they would not let me buy the car with out a Pre Purchase Inspection was done because I am out of state. The car looked so good online I didn't think it needed one. We priced the car at $20,000 and I had Strickley BMW do the inspection. It came back very bad. Mod was found throughout the whole car, damage to the frame, transmission leaks, oil leaks, rear shock mounts broken, brake ABS system dismantled and much much more I have all pictures and report of this inspection. In fact there was sitting water in the glove box and rear of the car in the truck and around the battery. I immediately informed Jaguar of Bellevue and no one got back to me. I told there the car needs a lot of work and the best I could offer was $5000 because of the work that will needed to be done. Because of the mold I even mentioned I would sign an as is clause. I've reached out to them now 3 times and no one has called me back. I sent the email to Randy and Alec and I've sent text messages to Alec. I am astonished that a dealer such as this would turn a blind eye to this and not want to just off load the car and keep the reputation. This is a warning to anyone looking at this car to please do due diligence it needs a lot of work. I can PM anyone then inspection report along with all the pics if needed I just know how we buys these cars off emotion and don't want someone to spend what I was about to.
