Should I buy

Based on these I would not let it deter me from buying the vehicle if you like it. The shock having a "misting" basically means the seal on the shock is starting to fail. It will eventually need to be replaced. However, it is not something that you need to do immediately. As for the other items, they were an issue and should have been repaired or they would have failed in the 2019 inspection as well. So I would not worry about them at all because they are fixed.

I don't see anything that would chase me off. If anything you can ask for a slight price reduction based on the fact that you will need to replace that shock.

Hopefully this helps. Let me know if you have questions. Thanks

Good afternoon,

Remember, this is a 12 year old car and you did not list the miles either.

As far as the repairs, that is nothing as it could have been normal wear and tear.

I would take the car to a BMW dealer and have it BMW certified to be sure there are no current issues or upcoming issues.

Thanks for your reply, it only has 86,000 miles. I’m absolutely clueless with cars so I appreciate your advice. I was just worried that I’d get a month in and need to repair. But this has put me at ease, so thank you.

You are welcome.

We are always glad to help.
