Slavik's Tiag 2004 330i ZHP Maintenance Journal
Bought 2004 BMW 330i ZHP for the wife as a replacement for her 05 VW Touareg. It will be her new daily driver. Got a great deal on it considering the maintenance that was done to it. The mileage when I bought it was 107k, price $8,000 that I negotiated to $7,400. Bought a one way airplane ticket to Houston, TX, got picked up by the owner who lived 2 hours away from airport(I didn't even know that, feel sorry for him), completed the transaction, dropped him off at a car rental place and started my road trip back to NC.
