                I'm thinking of buying a Cat D BMW 1 Series. The seller doesn't know why it was written off. Can you help?

                        Unfortunately not, I would suggest you get the vehicle inspected prior to purchase by a qualified Automotive Engineer Assessor. Contact www.iaea-online.org/find-an-engineer/ They should be able to point you in the right direction.

                Great to drive and superbly built. Wide choice of models, improved from 2007 with Efficient Dynamics. 118d is super economical.
