[QUOTE="ck318ci, post: 530698, member: 1970"] Thanks for sharing... I for once was very keen on the E66 myself until My E60 started to throw tantrum on me. I reckon no matter how pristine or immaculate history a car has, it is still subjected to wear and tear... My E60 had full service from authorised dealer and had the history checked with PML before purchased, But it has broken down on the road 3 times in ten months and close to 10k SGD for repair. I told myself to forego of getting the E66 and got myself a new F10 instead. The installment come up to the same and I would have less problems with maintainence or breakdown. Anyway, back to the E66, is a nice write up mate. Just a pointer, UK spec car comes in metric form so it should be reading Miles rather than KMs. Just make sure your car has not been tempered to make the mileage super low. I was in UK for many years and The 730LI was not a popular model due to its sheer size and fuel consumptions. It was mainly bought as fleet cars and usually will have above average mileage circa 20k Miles a year. Having 16k KMs for 3 years old UK 7 series ( 11k miles) is relatively uncommon bro. What you can do the verify this is to look at the chassis number and trace the original supplier dealer in UK and get a record. Most BM in UK especially a 7 series / fleet car will service their car in authorised dealer for 3 years so that they does not void the warranty. It will give you an indicator of what has been done. The other thing you can do is pay 30 pounds on line for HPI check. This will check the car for any accident claims. colour change and number of ownership including mileage verification if the car has been sole serviced and maintained by the dealer. Second point of note is you said the car is still under manufacturer warranty and wanted to change the cylinder cover. This will be difficult as warranty usually can be claimed by the original dealer who supplied the car. If you need to do it through AB in Malaysia, I am not too sure whether they allow for such adoption for grey import. Hope this helps If everything is clear, ENJOY The mighty beast as is one of the best luxury motor to date. CK [/QUOTE]
