BMW cars which are recommended by BM Tech are amongst the best examples of used BMWs around. To achieve the status of BM Tech Recommended, it must pass an important criteria: A BM Tech 200 point check must have been completed within the last six months and the majority of faults which may have been found were also rectified by BM Tech. This ensures the prospective buyer can feel rest assured that the BMW which they are interested in is in tip top shape. The body and chassis is also scrutinised to ensure that there has been no funny business with regard to shabby smash repairs or cheap fixes. A BM Tech Recommended BMW may still have been involved in a previous accident, but the repairs were expertly carried out. The service history is another important criteria: A well maintained BMW which has been serviced regularly by BMW specialists, will always be a better car than one which has not.

Other factors which can influence a recommendation are:

• Number of owners;

• Whether it is Australian delivered;

• Realistic or sensible pricing; and

• Quality of accessories and modifications if any.

The BM Tech Recommended BMW program is not a guarantee of a faultless car, nor is it a guarantee of a future faultless car, it is designed to reduce the possibility of prospective used BMW car buyers from purchasing a lemon. It was also designed to ensure the new owner that he or she will achieve maximum enjoyment from their new purchase, with the bonus of minimal future service and repair costs.
