2002 BMW 3 SERIES2.0L Petrol

The 2025-07-31 MOT at 115,052 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming continued roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend. Since the September 2023 test at 114,310 miles, each annual retest has produced identical clean outcomes, with no escalating faults or recurring advisories. The vehicle’s recorded mileage of 115,052 at 24 years old translates to roughly 4,794 miles per year, a figure considerably lower than the typical 10,000‑plus miles per annum for a 2002 model, suggesting prolonged periods of inactivity or very light use. The annual mileage increments between tests—approximately 350‑360 miles per year—remain uniform from 2022 through 2025, with no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or sudden drops that would indicate storage without preparation. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, verify the condition of the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and examine the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, particularly around the rear subframe and front sills, as these areas commonly deteriorate on high‑age BMWs despite the clean MOT record.
