any facelift 320d will have swirl flaps fitted. best bet is if you do buy one get them removed asap and get blanking plugs fitted. Do a search on swirl flaps its come up a few times. I also agree with the others that first one does seem a bit overpriced i have seen facelift ones up for that with similar mileage.

A good first question would be to ask the seller whether the swirl flaps are still in place. If they have been removed with bills to prove then the chances are its been well looked after - even if he simply knows what you are on about it suggests a well informed owner which is a good thing usually. I'd be checking closely to satisfy myself that the 71k mileage seems accurate - it might well be - if it genuinely has got a full BMW SH then thats a pretty good sign.
