I just called the place selling the 52k mile M5 Touring:
Me - Hi, could you talk me through the maintenance history of the car please - things like the clutch, brakes, VANOS system?
Salesman - It's got all the stamps in the book
Me - I'm sorry?
Salesman - That's all I've got, the service book and the stamps in it
Me - So no details of what work the car has had over the past ten years?
Salesman - You can call the BMW garages it's been to?
Me - Thanks
They've got it up for 27k, with absolutely no information other than it's had it's oil/filters/plugs changed on schedule
