2015 BMW 218 1.5L Petrol · W55 SEE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT pass on 13 December 2025 at 66,352 miles, which recorded no defects. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, moving from a failure in December 2023 to a clean certificate in the latest inspection. While the 2023 failure was triggered by significant tyre wear, specifically an offside front tyre at 0.8mm, subsequent tests show that these consumable issues have been addressed. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 47,581 miles in November 2022 to 66,352 miles in December 2025. This gradual increase suggests regular, predictable usage rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway running. The absence of sudden mileage jumps indicates a logical and documented service history regarding distance travelled. A prospective buyer should focus on the condition of the tyres and glass. The record shows a pattern of near-limit tyre tread depths in November 2022 and a failure in December 2023, suggesting the previous owner may have deferred tyre replacement until the legal limit was reached. Although the windscreen damage noted in December 2023 was passed as non-adverse, a physical inspection is necessary to ensure no new chips or cracks have developed. Beyond these consumables, the recent clean MOT suggests the underlying mechanical components remain in good order. However, since the 2024 test was partially obstructed by a child seat preventing a full inspection of the nearside front and rear adult seatbelts, a manual check of the belt webbing and buckle mechanisms is required to ensure full compliance and safety.
