I think it depends on price and just who you buy from, I sold my RS4 B7 to a guy in Holland who was moving back to the UK (RH drive car), he came test drove it and checked FSH, then bought it, kept in touch and too date the car has done 40K miles trouble free.
I looked after it and it showed.
I have found through trial and error some dealerships LESS inclined to want to be helpful in after sales, these dealers I dump.
Listers in Kings Lynn are great and the after sales guys FAB, if you get a price for a deal at a main dealers in the UK, just try them they will better your deal in most cases. I have trawled the internet for my best price looking for the last three new BMW's and Listers have bettered every deal.
Just lucky NO I have had to learn by mistakes.
