Who knows about mileage on old cars; but it sure looks very very nice.

If I was up that way, and in the market, I'd be on it. Pictures show leaves on the trees and dry pavement...I hope it's inside somewhere dry now.

Sounds good, but with so few miles, why are the front reflectors missing? Since the front fenders on a rust-belt car tend to show rust first, is this a

rusty car whose fenders were replaced during the respray? If so, there could be more rust "in the usual places."

Why, with so few miles, has the rear license plate been converted to the USA-spec square-tail version?

Why does it appear that the left rear vertical bar (aka "over rider") is so ill-fitted? Is it bent, or actually a right-side vertical bar?

Questions, questions, questions.

('Cuz I been there, done that on a low-mileage, Michigan car)

Get Mike Self up there from Ohio and have him check it out.

I'm betting the seller is Ed Ullom. Has been a BMW dealer for a long time in the Harrisburg, PA area. Have talked with him many times at the Hershey and Carlisle swap meets, where he used to bring some great, low mileage 1600s and 2002s. He has a 2002 Turbo and other nice cars that he has hung on to over the years. I believe he gets these as trade-ins and sells the ones he doesn't add to his collection.
