BMW 3 SERIES2017 · 2.0L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 110,768 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of neglect in mid-2023. While the car previously failed due to multiple safety infractions, the clean sheet from the latest inspection suggests that the current owner has addressed the outstanding mechanical issues and maintained the vehicle since. At 110,768 miles over nine years, this BMW has averaged approximately 12,300 miles per annum, which sits slightly above the national average for a petrol car of this age. The data shows consistent usage, with a 14,000-mile gap between June 2023 and June 2024, and another 8,000 miles in the year leading to the most recent test. This mileage indicates a vehicle used regularly rather than sitting, which typically places a higher demand on drivetrain-related components and suspension bushings. A buyer must perform a close physical inspection of the front-end geometry and wheels. The history shows the offside front inner wheel was flagged as slightly distorted in both 2022 and 2023, which led to a failure. This suggests a previous impact or significant pothole that could have affected the steering rack, control arms, or wheel hub bearings. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding thin front enough pads and the 2023 failure for thin rear pads indicate that the braking system requires strict monitoring intervals. The buyer should check the current discs for uneven wear or thinning and ensure the brake pads have not recently reached their limit again.
