2017 BMW 1 Series 3.0L Petrol · DE67 ABU

This vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 21 July 2025 at 72,668 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing subsequent tests shortly after initial failures, suggesting the owner addresses required repairs promptly to maintain legal standards. The mileage accumulation is typical for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,074 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between the September 2023 test at 49,643 miles and the September 2024 test at 62,007 miles, where the car covered over 12,000 miles in a single year. Usage then levelled off slightly leading up to the July 2025 inspection. The MOT record is exceptionally clean for a BMW 1 Series of this vintage. There are no mentions of common chassis issues such as suspension bush wear, coil spring fractures, or brake disc corrosion. The absence of any advisories over the last three years indicates a high standard of mechanical upkeep and suggests that consumables like tyres and wiper blades have been replaced proactively. A physical inspection should focus on general wear and tear not captured by the MOT, specifically the condition of the interior trim and the service history of the engine oil and filters. While the DVSA records show no structural or mechanical red flags, verifying the timing of the last major service will confirm if the mechanical care matches the clean testing history.
