2016 BMW 116 1.5L Diesel · CP16 VTC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 23 August 2025 at 67,881 miles resulted in no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively maintained the vehicle to meet DVSA standards without triggering any mechanical failures or structural concerns over the last five testing cycles. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,788 miles per annum. Between July 2021 at 40,406 miles and August 2025 at 67,881 miles, the car covered 27,475 miles, showing a steady rate of use rather than long periods of stagnation or heavy accumulation. The annual intervals of 4,000 to 9,000 miles suggest regular usage, which typically avoids the accelerated degradation of rubber components and fluid-related issues often seen in much low-mileage cars. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or exhaust corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that the MOT does not capture. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for thinning, as well as the tyre tread and uneven wear. Given the age of the BMW, checking for minor oil leaks or the condition of plastic underguards is prudent, though the clean electronic history suggests a well-cared-for example.
