Question Should I Buy This 540i?

Found a clean 1998 540Im sport package, 5 speed manual, 112,000 miles at a used car dealer. Has clean CARFAX, 2 owners, passes smog. It came from Florida originally, then off lease it was a CPO, then went to the used car dealer. Has newer 2001 alloys. Only problem is the dealer does not have any service records. Should I take a chance, knowing that at about this age is when the dreaded radiator problems come up, and I will not know if they have already been fixed? Asking price is $7000.
