Starting off with a 2005 BMW 330i ZHP acquired at 120,000 miles and it needed everything trust me.
Picked it up in texas and it had been sitting outside in the heat and sun for awhile, great for the paint right lol. Only exterior flaws were the front bumper and roof rails had clear coat damage. Including some wrong touch up paint in a spot and some door dings. Really in all it was'nt bad but really neglected, nothing not seen before with an older car.
With no service history for anything done and OEM logos were on pretty much every item, looks to be stock which is perfect. The headlights were swapped for aftermarket xenons and barely worked, original halogens wouldve been better than these for real. Flew out same day after selling a 335i and the ZHP replace it. Took the risk on the car not running and it being my only way back but yolo.
Surprisingly there was no hiccups at all for a 1500 mile ride across the US, with just checking fluids and tires including an obvious safety look around of course. Just some rattles but it held up surprsingly well, straight shot to get as much distance in as possible. There wasnt a single light on the dash the entire time back, and not leaking a drop. Trip was great tbh.
