I test drove another 2014 x35d, no accident, 86000km with just premium package and not a colour i love for 5k less. I much prefer the lower km, colours and features... just not the accident.
Looks like it was repaired by BMW dealership then? If so - it's worth checking out. They can tell exactly what was replaced. Was $15k damage in CAD? That's like a new bumper and a paint job at dealers prices

Update: Yeah, I found it. Nice car. It's not even $15k CAD according to Carproof. IMHO they change passenger seat airbag control module + airbags themselves )lots of them deployed during front collision, but it depends on speed too), cooler/radiator, lines, bumper + cosmetics + hood + paint + alignment and labor = way way more than $15k CAD, so IMHO it was a low speed collision NOT involving any frame issues or engine etc. Considering it was a official BMW Canada repair (car was leased at that time) - I wouldn't hesitate to check the car and go from there, but that's just me. I can understand majority of people will get scared and run away when you mention accident word
