2016 BMW 220 2.0L Diesel · AE16 YVL

The 2016 BMW 220 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA test on 13 March 2026 at 83,188 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the prior clean result from 12 March 2025 at 76,192 miles. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories indicates the previous keeper addressed any wear before each examination and kept the vehicle to a sound standard. Mileage sat at 76,192 in March 2025 and rose to 83,188 by March 2026, an annual gain of 6,996 miles. Against the ten-year lifespan and 83,188 total recorded miles, the car averages roughly 8,300 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The sparse two-entry history shows no gaps or sudden accumulation, and the clean sheets suggest no deferred consumable work surfaced at the testing bay. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle is now a decade old. The MOT record flags no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet standing age invites unseen underbody rust on sills and subframes that testers did not record. Verify the service history matches the low advisory profile and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition, as these minor items fall outside MOT failure thresholds until worn.
