2014 BMW 420 2.0L Diesel · YC64 AAV

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 09 October 2025 at 94,654 miles resulted in a pass following a minor failure for insufficient windscreen washer fluid. This specific defect is a consumable issue and does not indicate mechanical or structural neglect. The absence of recurring advisories suggests that the primary safety and environmental components have met the required tolerance standards over the last several years. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per year. Data shows a steady increase in mileage between January 2023 at 68,534 miles and October 2024 at 82,006 miles, representing roughly 13,500 miles in 21 months. The subsequent jump of 12,148 miles between February 2024 and October 2025 indicates regular driving habits, which generally benefits modern engines as it helps prevent seals from drying out and avoids issues associated with long periods of standing. While the MOT record is clean of structural corrosion or mechanical system failures, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and bushings. Given the mileage is approaching 100,000 miles, rubber elements like control arm bushes often show signs of wear or cracking that MOT testers do not always flag until they become critical. Check the brake disc surfaces for deep scoring or uneven wear, as the record does not explicitly mention binding calipers or thinning pads during the recent tests.
