BMW X62010 · 3.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a recent PASS result from 16 July 2025 at 103,391 miles. The maintenance trend shows stability in critical systems, though minor recurring issues persist, particularly around tyre wear and lighting. The most recent test identified only a damaged front windscreen with no impact on visibility—this is a cosmetic concern rather than a mechanical fault. No new significant defects were flagged, indicating that the previous year’s repairs or replacements have held. Mileage accumulation over the past four years has been consistent, averaging approximately 6,400 to 7,000 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. There are no large gaps between tests, suggesting regular servicing and use. The most notable spike occurred between September 2022 and August 2024, when mileage rose from 91,320 to 100,648 miles—a gain of 9,328 miles in just under two years. This reflects steady driving but not excessive strain. The absence of major structural or drivetrain failures in the record supports the idea that the car has been driven responsibly. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the rear tyres, as both inner edges were worn close to the legal limit in multiple tests, including the failed 2023-09-02 MOT. This pattern suggests uneven wear, possibly due to alignment issues or suspension bush wear. The front lower suspension arm bushes were noted as worn in 2024, and while not causing excessive movement, they may degrade further. Rear brake pads were already thin in 2022, so current pad thickness should be verified. Additionally, the repeated stop lamp lens defects indicate potential corrosion or poor fitment; these should be checked for integrity and proper function. Structural rust, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be examined given the vehicle’s age and exposure to UK weather conditions.
