2013 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · HX63 ABK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with no ongoing mechanical or structural defects recorded in the most recent MOT history. The April 2025 test at 134,562 miles resulted in a pass with no advisories, indicating that the vehicle has successfully addressed previous failures. While the record shows two instances of failure—once in April 2023 at 88,689 miles and again in April 2025 at 134,562 miles—the lack of specific defect descriptions in the data suggests these were likely minor issues that were rectified immediately to secure a pass. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,351 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 88,689 miles in April 2023 to 110,635 miles in April 2024, and finally to 134,562 miles in April 2025. This consistent annual usage suggests the car has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which generally helps prevent seal degradation and fluid contamination. Since the MOT record is remarkably clean regarding specific component failures, there are no immediate red flags regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion. However, the presence of two failures without recorded defect descriptions means the buyer should perform a thorough physical inspection of the underbody. Focus specifically on the condition of the brake discs and calipers for signs of uneven wear or binding, and check the exhaust system for premature corrosion, as these are common areas for failures that do not always leave a detailed trail in summary records. Given the mileage has now exceeded 130,000 miles, a mechanical inspection should also prioritize the condition of the drivetrain components and rubber bushings. While the MOT history shows no trends of worsening deterioration, the age and mileage suggest that consumables like tyres and wiper blades may require attention regardless of the MOT status.
