Our Verdict

This 2011 BMW X5 offers strong brand appeal but carries some risks due to a recent MOT failure and limited reliability data. A pre-purchase inspection is essential.

Prioritise a thorough mechanical inspection, particularly for diesel-specific issues like DPF problems or turbocharger wear. Verify the reason for the 2025 MOT failure - the lack of recorded defects is unusual. Check service history for oil changes and filter replacements, as diesel engines are sensitive to maintenance. Negotiate based on the mileage (97,711 miles for a 13-year-old vehicle) and the need for potential repairs. Be wary of 'clean' MOT records that may mask underlying issues.
