1982 BMW R100 1.0L Petrol · ALH 605Y

This BMW R100 presents an exceptional record of roadworthiness, distinguished by a total absence of defects or advisories across its last four inspections. This consistent mechanical stability is evidenced by the most recent clean pass on 14 May 2025, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without the recurring failures typically encountered in motorcycles of this era. The recorded mileage of 14,870 miles is remarkably low for a vehicle of this age, representing an average annual accumulation of approximately 338 miles over 44 years. This usage profile indicates that the motorcycle has likely spent extended periods in storage or has been used very sparingly. Mechanically, this suggests minimal wear on the engine internals and drivetrain components, although it shifts the inspection priority toward rubber components and seals that can degrade over time regardless of distance travelled. Because the DVSA records are entirely devoid of advisories, there are no specific mechanical red flags, such as brake pipe corrosion or suspension bush wear, to investigate. The absence of noted oil leaks or emissions failures is particularly positive for a boxer-twin engine of this vintage. A prospective buyer should use the test drive to confirm this clean record by listening for.
