Garage List
After 50K miles these cars require some major maintenance. The condition of the interior should be inspected very thoroughly because BMW's don't do so well being out in the sun. In addition, check for any rust underneath the vehicle.

At 50K miles especially if the vehicle has been driven hard will require most likely new bushings, shocks, fluid change (oil, transmission, brake flush etc.). Spark Plugs too? I believe Inspection II is at 50K miles. Someone can correct me if I am wrong. Could be an oil leak and most likely a windshield washer fluid leak as well.

Not trying to push you away from buying the car but just remember to check all of the items listed above because paying for the maintenance is a PITA.

Can't give you a solid yes or no with the quality of pictures as well and not being able to put the car on a lift to inspect. But you can do all of those things before purchasing!
