2016 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Petrol · ET16 AEA

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT test on 25 July 2025 at 56,140 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to July 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without recurring mechanical failures or safety warnings. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old car, averaging roughly 5,614 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last five years, growing from 35,476 miles in July 2021 to 56,140 miles by July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of stagnation that would suggest neglect or abnormal usage patterns. Because the MOT record is devoid of advisories, there are no specific red flags regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions. The absence of any flagged defects over five years is rare and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. A buyer should still perform a physical check for components that MOT testers may overlook or that do not trigger a failure. Focus on the condition of the tyre sidewalls and brake fluid moisture levels, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from age-related rubber degradation rather than wear-and-tear. Checking for signs of perished seals or battery health is advisable given the light annual usage.
