2020 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · BY02 ABS

The vehicle presents a positive roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 27 August 2025 at 35,772 miles resulted in a pass, though the tester noted an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit with uneven edge wear. This indicates that while the primary mechanical and structural components meet safety standards, basic consumable items are beginning to require attention after a period of consistent operation. The mileage pattern is low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per annum. Between the 2023 test at 23,374 miles and the 2024 test at 30,978 miles, the car covered roughly 7,600 miles, followed by another 4,800 miles leading up to the August 2025 test. This consistent usage suggests regular short-distance commuting, which typically places less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage motorway examples. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension alignment due to the edge wear flagged on the offside front tyre in the 2025 record. Uneven tyre wear often points to worn control arm bushes or tracking issues that may require adjustment or replacement. Given the low mileage, it is also prudent to check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as vehicles that sit for longer periods can develop rust on the braking surfaces despite low mileage readings.
