I am about to buy a 1995 BMW 525it wagon. The car's owner said his mechanic noticed a small leak from the headgasket. He said he would get it replaced before I bought it. He said that his mechanic quoted him 400 dollars for the fix. Does that figure(400 dollars) sound right. Thanks, Mike

No, the quote is too low. Replacement of the head gasket on that motor takes at least 12 hours, plus parts (gasket set, head bolts, and fluids)
