BMW 1162013 · 1.6L Petrol

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent MOT test conducted in September 2025 at 71,901 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows three consecutive clean passes since an initial failure in 2022, indicating that the vehicle is currently maintained to a high standard and that previous owners have addressed any minor issues identified by the tester. The mileage pattern is notably low for a vehicle from 2013, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent, moderate usage, with only 1,838 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and 1,579 miles between 2024 and 2025. This low mileage suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though such low usage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or fluid stagnation if the car sits stationary for extended periods. While the clean history is encouraging, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to age-related failure rather than mileage-wear. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as low-frequency use often leaves rubber components brittle over time. Given the vehicle's age, check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent braking can lead to uneven rotor wear. Verifying the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody is also essential to ensure that the low mileage has not masked hidden rust over the thirteen-year span.
