It looks like a sawn-off pen and has a magnet in the end where you'd expect to find the writing tip. It has a BMW logo on it and the top has a pocket clip like a regular pen.

Anyone know what it does...?

I think it's to activate the temporary electrical cut-off switch only fitted while the car is in transport to the dealer. I've seen these switches behind the window glass on MINIs (and BMWs) fresh off the transport trucks before they are dealer prepped. I understand the switch is magnetically activated by a pen-like device. Sounds like you have one.

Edit: Looks like David Scott can type faster than I can!
