Hi Guys,

I've been recently looking to get a second hand / recond E60. When i was working in Australia, they have alot of useful car inspection services, where if you want to buy a car you can engage their services to inspect the car, take it out for some tests and they will give you a report with recommendations and the overall condition of the car including if needed any immediate repairs that might be needed.

Very useful service. Unfortunately i have been trying to find this service in Malaysia but i can't find it. I guess what my questions is, I've found the particular BMW E60 model, and the dealer and owner (so far two potential sale) has agreed to let me take it out for diagnostic or testing. What is the best place i can bring in the Kuala Lumpur region / Selangor region to check up / inspect the vehicle, prefably experienced in BMW and can let me know the general condition and wear and tear.

I've done some searching on the bmw forums and this forums but so far ppl have recommended workshops for servicing, haven't found any for inspection.

Your help would be greatly appreciated guys

Thanks guys

I will contact AB or Ingress than to see if they can provide this inspection service. I definately expect a fee and i'm willing to pay for a good inspection. The reason why i'm abit paraniod is back around 12 years ago when i was studying in College, i bought a second hand Mazda lantis and i brought it to a car mechanic that i've been using to inspect. He said no problem besides a few minor cosmetic issues and i purchased it and had the worst time of my life with the car within one month, so many parts all problematic and spent so much on replacement parts all within 2-3months.

Hence i definately don't want a cheap inspection. Hopefully for the rest of you guys buying 2nd hand cars, please pay more to get your car inspected by experienced professionals of the brand, not just any mechanic.
