2019 BMW 8 Series 4.4L Petrol · 1 WRG

The vehicle has maintained a consistent roadworthiness record, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-03 at 28,581 miles showing only a minor defect. The rear prop shaft flexible coupling was noted as slightly deteriorated, which is a non-critical issue but warrants monitoring. No other defects were recorded in this or previous tests, indicating stable maintenance practices over the past three years. The absence of significant issues suggests the vehicle has been well cared for, though the single advisory highlights a potential area for further inspection. The mileage of 28,581 miles at age seven years equates to an average of just under 4,083 miles per year, which is notably low. This pattern suggests either infrequent use or extended periods of inactivity, both of which can affect mechanical components. The MOT history shows no major gaps, with annual tests conducted consistently from 2022 to 2025. The lowest recorded mileage was 19,781 miles in April 2022, followed by a gradual increase to 28,581 miles in October 2025. This steady progression implies regular, if limited, usage rather than sudden spikes in wear. The sole defect identified—deterioration of the rear prop shaft flexible coupling—should be examined for signs of wear or misalignment. Buyers should also check the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components can degrade over time, especially in vehicles with low mileage. Brake discs and calipers should be inspected for uneven wear or corrosion, and the exhaust system should be checked for leaks or damage. A thorough visual inspection of the chassis for rust or structural weakness is advisable, given the vehicle’s age and the potential impact of prolonged inactivity on metal components.
