Anyone recently owned P33 FPS Estoril blue 4.6iS

Post by Ant » Thu Apr 04, 2013 9:52 pm

Hi, I have been to look at an E53 4.6iS that is on sale near Bristol this evening.

I have seen a service log book, last service was in Hampshire (I will ring them tomorrow to see if they have additional information)

I am hoping anyone knows who previously owned this vehicle so they could tell me if its a dog or not.

V5 was not with dealer as he has sent it to DVLA to get the private plate off the car.

The private reg is currently P33 FPS and the vin number ends 00LN76804

Any ideas ?

Hi I beleive you can ways make enquiries with dvk for previous owner details and may be worth checking with them.

But make sure you check everything and I mean everything works as a lot of electroc bit that can cost if having to replace parts. Also there is a check button on tha instruments tells you if any probs ESP with air suspension. Then just usual checks on any car

Thank you, sorry but what is DVK ?

I decided against this one anyway, too many 'little' things that made me think previous owner did not really care, cant speak for everyone but if something goes wrong then I tend to get it fixed, not let them all build up
