2021 BMW 218I SPORT1.5L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean pass in its most recent test on 5 June 2025 at 19,983 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a single mechanical failure shortly prior. While the tester initially flagged a fractured offside front coil spring in late May 2025, the subsequent pass just one week later confirms the repair was rectified and that no further suspension defects were identified. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of low use between June 2024 and June 2025, where the car covered only 10,628 miles in nearly twelve months. This pattern suggests the vehicle was likely used for short journeys or remained stationary, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to average usage. However, low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from rubber degradation or flat-spotting if they have sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension components to ensure the replacement coil spring was fitted correctly and that no other bushes or dampers have perished prematurely. Given the low mileage, the brake discs and calipers may show surface corrosion or pitting from infrequent use, which should be checked for uneven wear. The tyres should also be examined for cracking on the sidewalls, as age-related decay often precedes tread depth issues in low-mileage vehicles.
