However there’s a couple of sticky points which make it slightly harder to sell privately: new owner would be 5th owner, late service history, mot shows low rear tyres for two years in a row, large sum of money for a private sale. £24k sounds reasonable in current markets given it’s spec |

It's also worth noting that WBAC does not account for any extras or factory options - aka poverty spec.
A private sale, autotrader and a dealer will add extra for the premium that this car will get. It's not badly priced, but most who would be prepared to spend the cash on what is a very high spec are reluctant to in the current market. Used car pricing is just mad at the moment, great car though OP…I have Tanzanite Blue and it is one of the most desired colours. Armaan |

An interesting note which completely flew through my mind was when I bought it had the 5 year service inclusive on it (1 year remaining) so it's completely mad that the first service was late!
Too bad it ran out 2 months before the Major service was due... |

It might be daft, but could it be that the dealer just didn't update the system? Might it be possible to see who supplied it, work out the dealer most likely to have done the service and see if they have any record of work done on the car?

EDIT: Thought I'd check MOT locations and in 2019 before the first recorded service on the iDrive it was done in Warwick, so the car had already left Scotland before then. Going to check with BMW Customer Service to check if there are any unrecorded works they have on their system. EDIT: After Asking BMW Customer service they only have the two on their system with the first being at Sytner Coventry which makes sense considering where the MOT was done. Probably going to give them a ring about it just to check what records they have of the vehicle. Last edited by Kyuuseishu; 01-11-2022 at 11:54 AM.. |

Update: Oil service carried out. Annoyingly the dealership I had it done at wouldn't put it on the iDrive as I didn't also have the cabin microfilter done... I suppose that's my fault for not fully confirming before hand. I have the invoice at least to show that an oil service was carried out.
