2002 BMW R Series 1.1L Petrol · YE02 AVJ

The vehicle is in an exceptional state of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 8 May 2025 at 95,908 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of passes without a single advisory or failure, indicating a high standard of preventative care. The mileage is notably low for a 24 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,996 miles per year. The odometer readings show a steady, low-volume increase over the last five years, moving from 90,485 miles in May 2021 to 95,908 miles in May 2025. This suggests the car has been used sparingly and has not suffered from sudden bursts of heavy usage or long periods of total stagnation. Despite the clean MOT history, the low annual mileage and the age of the vehicle necessitate a physical inspection of rubber components and fluids. Perished tyre sidewalls, dried-out suspension bushes, and degraded brake fluid are common in cars that spend more time stationary than in motion. A buyer should specifically check for signs of corrosion on the chassis and brake discs, as light use can lead to surface rust and seizing calipers. The lack of recurring faults in the DVSA record is rare for a vehicle of this vintage. While the documentation suggests a meticulously maintained example, the absence of any flagged consumables like wiper blades or tyre tread over five years implies the owner likely addressed these items before the tests. Verification of service records for oil changes and timing belt intervals is recommended to complement the clean MOT data.
