Our Verdict

Highly recommended for buyers seeking a premium SUV with a clean mechanical record and consistent usage. This X4 shows an exemplary MOT history with no recorded defects over the last five years.

When inspecting this specific vehicle, the primary selling point is the flawless MOT history, which suggests the owner has not neglected basic maintenance requirements. However, as MOT tests do not cover mechanical health, you must verify the full service history to ensure the 200cc diesel engine has been serviced according to BMW's intervals, particularly regarding oil changes and filter replacements.

Check for signs of wear on the tyres, as these are a common failure point for this model-wide. Given the mileage is nearly 90,000 miles, ask if the brake discs and suspension components have been inspected or replaced recently, as these are typical high-wear items at this age point.

The 2.0-litre diesel engine is relatively efficient for its size, making it suitable for high-mileage drivers. You should expect moderate insurance groups, depending on the specific trim level, though the X4 typically falls into a higher bracket compared to economy SUVs.

Annual maintenance costs for BMWs tend to be higher than average brands. Budget between £600 and £1,200 per year to cover routine servicing, potential minor repairs, depending on the immediate condition of consumables like tyres and brakes.

While the MOT record shows no defects, you should manually inspect for common BMW-specific issues such as oil leaks around the valve cover or wear on the suspension bushings. Check the tyres for sidew cracks or uneven wear, as the aggregate data indicates tyres are a top reason for MOT failure in this model group.

Pay close attention to the windscreen and wiper blades; although this car has passed without issues, the model data highlights wipers as a frequent failure point. Ensure the diesel particulate filter system operates correctly, as these can be sensitive if the car was only used for short trips.

This 2017 BMW X4 presents a very strong profile, having passed five consecutive MOT tests without a single defect or advisory. At 89,103 miles, it sits slightly above the fleet average annual mileage of 8,905 miles but remains within a reasonable usage bracket. The 2.0L diesel engine is a common choice for long-distance cruising in this luxury coupé class.

The BMW X4 generally maintains a solid reputation, with an aggregate market MOT pass rate of 88.4% across over 15,000 analysed vehicles.
