Our Verdict
Highly recommended for buyers seeking a
Focus on verifying the service history to ensure the 1995cc diesel engine has had regular oil changes, as low annual mileage can sometimes result in service intervals being overlooked. Check for any evidence of timing chain noise, a known point of attention for BMW engines of this era, although no such mechanical failures appear in this specific car's MOT records.
Negotiate based on the current state of the tyres, referencing the January 2025 advisory regarding the front tyres being worn close to the legal limit. Ensure that these were replaced following that inspection.
The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for fuel efficiency, particularly on longer journeys. Tax and insurance will be typical for a 2014 BMW 1 Series, which generally falls into a mid-range insurance group.
Maintenance costs are expected to be higher than for budget brands due to the premium nature of BMW parts. Typical annual expenses will include diesel fuel, road tax, and scheduled maintenance for the braking system and filters.
Inspect the front tyres specifically, as the January 2025 MOT noted they were worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edge. While this vehicle has avoided the common model failures such as headlamp issues or inoperative engine management lights, these should still be checked during a pre-purchase inspection.
Check the condition of the brake pads, as these are cited as a top MOT failure reason across the wider 118 model aggregate data. Ensure all exterior lighting is fully functional to avoid common headlamp failures seen in other examples of this model.
This grey 2014 BMW 118 diesel has covered 71,548 miles, which is below the model average. Its MOT history shows five consecutive passes, with only a single advisory for front tyre wear recorded in 2025. The vehicle has shown consistent mileage progression over the last five years.
The BMW 118 has an aggregate MOT pass rate of 83.4%, with common failures often linked to headlamps and brake pads.
