2014 BMW 520 2.0L Diesel · AO14 LDY

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 12 April 2025 at 115,523 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they escalated into failures, maintaining a clean record across the last five recorded inspections. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per annum. There is a notable progression of 17,000 miles between December 2019 and February 2021, followed by a more gradual climb to reach 115,523 miles by April 2025. The lack of significant gaps in mileage suggests the car has been used regularly rather than sitting, which is generally beneficial for the condition of seals, gaskets, and braking components as it prevents the dry-rot andrelated corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of components common to this BMW generation at the 115,000-mile mark. Focus on the suspension bushes and control arms for signs of perished rubber, as these often wear out without triggering an MOT failure. Since the record shows no advisories for brakes, verify there is no excessive weeping from the calipers or uneven thickness on the brake discs, as the MOT only tests for functional efficiency rather than the overall remaining life of the parts.
