    BMW X1 - Help me choose

    The car was bought from a private seller but before i purchased I took it to BMW for a 21 point check and to have a look at the cars maintenance history all came back clear and ok. They got nothing out of the sale ;)

    BMW X1 - Help me choose

    Its just impossible to accept since this car has such low mileage and not that old. Has been serviced regularly by BMW. I have never felt so ripped off. Im hoping BMW SA are at least willing to assist with some of the costs.

    Those are my thoughts exactly and considering BMW are currently in litigation for this specific issue. You can google BMW N20 class action lawsuit. Its actually coming to a head next month.

    Tbh its not a clincher for me. The fact that the 2012 model has only 60K on the clock and is driven by a female kindergarten teacher makes me think its the better buy ;) Thanks for your reply. Car is also going for a 20 point check at BMW SMG so I would hope they would pick that problem up?
