2011 BMW 120 2.0L Diesel · AV11 YEC

The 2026‑01‑21 MOT at 129,957 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the BMW 120 remains roadworthy as of today and indicates a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has increased steadily from 107,516 miles in January 2022 to 129,957 miles in January 2026, a gain of 22,441 miles over four years, or roughly 5,600 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s age of about 15 years and shows no sudden spikes or long idle periods. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, verify tyre tread depth and condition, and look for structural rust on the sills, wheel arches and underbody, as these items are common failure points on high‑mileage BMWs of this era. The consistent pass record suggests regular servicing, but a pre‑purchase inspection must confirm that these components are still within service limits and that no deferred maintenance exists beyond the documented MOTs.
