2018 BMW M5 Auto 4.4L Other · V80 FOK

The 2018 BMW M5 Auto presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent DVSA test on 1 February 2025 at 60,741 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the 15 October 2023 examination at 51,810 miles also passed cleanly. The maintenance history shows no advisories, no failures, and no recurring mechanical faults across the available record. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eight-year-old vehicle. The odometer moved only 8,931 miles between October 2023 and February 2025, equating to roughly 5,900 miles per year across that span and an overall average near 7,593 miles annually. A near fifteen-month gap separates the two tests, yet the clean results on both dates suggest the previous keeper maintained the car without neglect. The low yearly use implies lighter mechanical loading, though standing periods can still affect seals, tyres, and brake discs. With no faults flagged in either test, the MOT data reveals no structural corrosion, suspension bush wear, or binding brake calipers requiring attention. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the twin-turbo V8 drivetrain, ZF automatic gearbox, and xDrive components, as these sit outside routine MOT scope. Verify service history matches the low mileage and check for aged consumables such as cracked tyres or perished wiper blades from limited use.
