2015 BMW 640 3.0L Diesel · M31 HHN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in July 2025 at 65,760 miles passed with only minor advisories related to wiper blades and a shallow tyre cut. This follows a failure in July 2024 where the car was rejected for worn rear brake pads and scored discs. While the vehicle has cleared its immediate failures, the recurring nature of brake component wear suggests repairs are only addressed when reaching inspection limits. At 65,760 miles, this eleven-year-old BMW shows low mileage, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. This low usage often results in vehicles sitting, which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and brake surfaces. The data shows consistent annual travel of roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles between 2022 and 2025, indicating a stable but infrequent usage. However, the low mileage has not prevented the vehicle from experiencing age-related wear seen in the MOT history. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment due to persistent issues with inner edge tyre wear recorded in 2023, 2024, and 2025. This pattern typically points to worn control arm bushes or incorrect camber settings that have not been rectified. Additionally, the history of pitted and scored brake discs across multiple years necessitates a thorough check of the caliper pistons to ensure they are not seizing or causing uneven wear. Given the low mileage, verify the condition of the fluid hoses and rubber seals, as these can perish over time regardless of distance driven.
