2006 BMW 1182.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 March 2026 at 163,247 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the car has not entered a worsening or neglected condition in the recorded period. Recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a 2006 model, averaging roughly 8,162 miles per year. The tests show 152,970 miles on 18 May 2023, 156,339 miles on 19 March 2024, 160,979 miles on 20 March 2025, and 163,247 miles on 20 March 2026. Annual accumulation stayed between 3,000 and 4,600 miles, with no rapid jumps or standing gaps. The DVSA record is sparse but clean, showing no consumable or structural issues logged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the age and 163,000-mile use. The MOT data flags no corrosion or exhaust emission failures, yet twenty years of service can hide worn components the annual test did not record. The duplicate 20 March 2025 entries show a fail and pass on the same day at 160,979 miles with no defects listed, pointing to an administrative retry rather than a mechanical defect. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic test compliance, though the absence of advisories means in-person checks of structural integrity and drivetrain condition remain prudent before purchase.
