Good shop to check cars!

As you guys might know insurance totalled my car so now i'm in the prossess of buying a new one. i was just wondering if theres a good shop so i can take the car before i buy it. i want them to check EVERY THING on the car. i'm planning to buy a 325is or 328is. would it be a good idea to take it to dealer ship for inspections?



thanks alot!

yeah, the dealer ... ask them to do a factory certification process on the car. It'll be pricey, but when buying a old BMW... I'd take every precaution to make sure it isn't plagued with problems like most BMWs are. They are notorious for bad window regulators and electrical problems. Why anyone would buy a BMW more than 1-2 years old is beyond me. It's NOT pimp... cuz well it's an old car. The maintenance is some of the most expensive out there... really, there is no benefit to buying a used BMW more than 5 years old.
