Has anyone heard of Sam Tustain in the BMW circles? He has contacted me in response to my 'Wanted Advert' on Pistonheads for a 530i Sport. He said he's a 'Car Finder', and buys directly off of BMW, and then sells the cars on to customers. I know people like this exist, but I just wondered if anybody has used Sam to assist in their search for a BMW?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks.

sounds like a line to me. Probably will offer to sell your car if you pay him a fee. Run away...

All of the main London garages are BMW Owned through which they dispose of all of their HQ cars at lower than normal prices. You can do a decent search on the BMW web site for a 530i sport selecting colour, options and transmission type etc. Also worth checking the coming soon tab as often the best ones appear here and are sold before they reach the main listings.

If you are looking for an older 530i sport it lists a few. If your car finder means he buys the older ex fleet cars then you should go to Blackbush car auctions where they are disposed of.
