I recently bought a 11’ E90 320D A/T (90 000km).
You can view the thread here: https://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=89633

It had FSH with BMW.
I requested the history from BMW and I’ve listed the major items below. I left out the bulbs and other misc items.

Based on the information, is it fair to say that my next service should happen ASAP and should include the following:
1) Oil + Oil filter
2) Micro filter
3) Air filter
4) Fuel filter
5) Gearbox service
6) Brake check
7) Anything else I should be adding / checking?

It worries me that the last fuel filter change was at the 45 000km service interval.

7) Diff oil service (since the car will go to ZF, just purchase the diff oil from BMW and have them change it for free)
8) Inspect your fluids (power steering, cooling system and brake fluids)
9) Inspect the dampener/vibration pulley for any wear (this usually needs replacement at around 150k, but there have been cases of earlier failures)

Glow plugs maybe?

I'll ask the question and see what the workshop say.

No need to change glow plugs in our South African climate - learned this the expensive way on my old Audi TDI.
