2018 BMW 218I SE 1.5L Petrol · MD68 AAN

This BMW 218I SE demonstrates a stable and high standard of roadworthiness. The most recent MOT on 17 November 2025 at 76,036 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that prevents the accumulation of common wear-and-tear faults. The mileage is typical for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,500 miles per year. The progression is steady, with 6,160 miles added between November 2023 and November 2024, and a slightly higher increase of 6,162 miles leading into the November 2025 test. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or misuse. A single failure occurred on 9 November 2022 at 54,375 miles, though the record shows it passed the same day with no defects listed. This likely indicates a minor administrative error or a rapid rectification of a trivial item. The absence of recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions over the last four years is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A physical inspection should focus on consumables that do not always trigger MOT failures until they reach a critical limit. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as the clean MOT history implies these have been managed but does not provide specific wear measurements. Inspect the chassis and wheel arches for surface corrosion, as the lack of structural advisories suggests a well-kept exterior, but manual verification remains prudent.
