Make an appointment at the BMW dealer nearest the car and ask seller to drop it off. Explain on phone to Service Advisor that you are the customer/buyer, paying for the inspection, and the findings/report are only to be given to you, not the person who drops off/picks up the car. If seller isn't willing, move on.

Make an appointment at a BMW dealership, they charge around $150 to do an inspection. Well worth it in my opinion

From Buffalo which is not far from where the car is located.....
For a PPI I would try/call two places. Have the owner get the car to either Black Forest Motorsport or Towne BMW
Hope this helps

I checked with Tonawanda BMW & they said they do not do PPI for liability reasons.

I will check the others bimmer shops.

Thanks ALL, appreciate your help & support with this.
