BMW 1162014 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2025-04-24 at 120,653 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Prior tests from 2024 and 2023 also showed no critical issues, though an apparent duplicate entry on 2024-04-30 records both a PASS and a FAIL for the same mileage. This inconsistency may suggest administrative error, but the absence of defects in the latest test implies the car is currently in acceptable condition. No recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns are evident from the provided data. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging around 10,054 miles annually. From 97,199 miles in 2022 to 120,653 miles in 2025, the accumulation shows steady rather than rapid growth, with no significant gaps suggesting prolonged inactivity. The 2024-04-30 tests at 109,331 and 109,327 miles—just 4 miles apart—raise questions about data accuracy but do not indicate mechanical deterioration. Overall, the maintenance record appears consistent with regular use and minimal neglect. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade over time. The absence of brake-related defects in the MOT history is reassuring, but a physical inspection of brake discs and calipers is advisable. Exhaust emissions and corrosion checks should also be prioritized, as these can develop unnoticed. While the MOT data shows no immediate risks, the car’s age and mileage warrant a thorough pre-purchase examination to confirm its ongoing reliability.
