2014 BMW 3 Series 3.0L Diesel · AF64 RBV

The vehicle currently presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test in February 2026 at 95,699 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards. While a failure was noted in July 2025 at 93,988 miles, the subsequent pass just one month later suggests that the owner was proactive in addressing any issues immediately to return the car to the road. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Data shows a steady accumulation, moving from 83,237 miles in July 2023 to 95,699 miles in early 2026. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not been left to sit stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components. The 6,000-mile gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests reflects a predictable driving habit. Despite the clean record in the latest tests, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points for a BMW of this age and mileage. Given the lack of recorded advisories, the buyer should manually inspect suspension bushes and control arm bushings for cracking, as these often degrade around 100,000 miles. Checking the condition of the brake discs for pitting and ensuring calipers are not binding is prudent, as the MOT only tests efficiency rather than the thinning of components.
