Tracing previous owners of B5 biturbo no 92

Post by richardracer » Thu Sep 14, 2017 10:12 pm

Hello to all on this forum,

I have been after a B5 biturbo for a while and have seen 92 is for sale. It is a Dec 2011 blue car with black trim. Does anyone know of the history f this car without contravening data ptection rules?

Any leads much appreciated.

Got a great plate number on it
I would imagine within the Servuce history will be at least an invoice for the previous owner
What is it you need to know ? Looks a very high spec well looked after alpina

Reg no transferred off, but I have my own anyway. Would like to contact previous owners for history, faults and service history if missing.

Thanks

Lloyd cockermouth bmw and sytners Nottingham have serviced it I would call them up explain your looking to buy and beg if they can email copy invoices even if the redact name address
Also if you do buy it I think it needs the front decals and logo in silver

Better still Id call the garage which you may have done and get them to go through the service history and dates hopefully be some bills in the documents that may yield contact details of owners
I am unsure if it's a one or two owner but it does look like it's been serviced correctly as advertised

Have you just changed to the twin turbo dark side with three pointed star, looking at your user name? Bit slow late at night!

Hello HAP,

Thank you for your suggestions. Sytner Nottingham and BMW Cockermouth were helpful providing service history up to Nov 2015, 88k miles MOT.
