2011 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Petrol · YS60 AED

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 10 November 2023 recorded 104 616 miles and passed with no defects, indicating a stable mechanical condition after a brief failure the previous month. The earlier failure on 5 November 2022 at 98 261 miles was rectified within three days, as the re‑test on 8 November 2022 at 98 262 miles passed cleanly. Overall the maintenance trend shows improvement rather than deterioration, with no recurring faults identified in the four‑year window. Mileage accumulation has been steady rather than accelerated. Between the November 2021 test at 90 026 miles and the failure in November 2022 the odometer rose by roughly 8 235 miles, then increased by about 6 355 miles to reach 104 616 miles by November 2023. This pattern reflects a typical usage rate for a 15‑year‑old BMW, averaging close to 7 000 miles per year, and suggests the car has not been subjected to unusually high wear cycles. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and mounting points for corrosion, examine brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and check the exhaust system for rust or leaks. The under‑body and wheel arches merit close scrutiny for structural rust, while the cooling system, battery, and tyre tread depths should be verified given the vehicle’s age and mileage. A service history covering the period after the 2023 MOT would also be valuable to confirm continued upkeep.
