2020 BMW M340I Xdrive Auto 3.0L Petrol · AB06 ACE

A clean MOT history apart from a single tyre advisory points to a vehicle that has largely met the statutory safety standards throughout its life, with the most recent test on 28 January 2026 confirming a pass and no recorded defects. The only recorded issue – a near‑side rear tyre approaching the legal tread limit – was noted in the 9 February 2024 test and has not re‑appeared, indicating that the problem was either addressed or has not progressed to a failure condition. The odometer reads 68 205 miles after six years of service, averaging roughly 11 300 miles per annum. This annual accumulation sits comfortably within the typical usage band for a performance saloon of this age, showing no evidence of unusually high mileage spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity that might conceal hidden wear. The regular annual testing cadence, with no gaps longer than twelve months, further suggests the vehicle has been kept on the road consistently, allowing wear patterns to develop in a normal fashion. Given the tyre advisory, a prospective buyer should inspect the near‑side rear tyre for tread depth, uniformity of wear and any signs of sidewall damage. Uneven wear could signal mis‑alignment, worn suspension bushes, or issues with the rear axle assembly; therefore a visual check of the rear suspension components – especially the lower wishbones, coil springs and any associated bushings – is advisable. During a test drive, listen for any knocking or clunking over bumps, and feel for a pull to one side when maintaining a steady steering input, which would indicate alignment or suspension concerns that may have contributed to the tyre wear. Although the MOT record shows no brake, exhaust or lighting failures, a thorough examination of the braking system remains prudent. Verify that the front and rear discs are free of excessive scoring, that the pads have sufficient thickness, and that the pedal feels firm without pulsation. A short road test should include a firm stop from moderate speed to confirm consistent pedal modulation and the absence of any judder. Confirm that all lights function correctly and that there is no visible corrosion on the chassis or subframe, as these items were not flagged in any test but are essential for ongoing roadworthiness.
