2014 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · CU14 NFE

The 2014 BMW 116 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 March 2026 at 64,912 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. No advisories or failures appear anywhere in the supplied history, which indicates the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime since at least April 2022. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a twelve-year-old car. The record shows 39,907 miles at the 7 April 2022 test, rising to 45,881 by 17 March 2023, 53,379 by 3 April 2024, 59,439 by 28 March 2025, and 64,912 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 5,000 to 6,500 miles added each year, averaging about 5,400 annually. The low, evenly spaced figures suggest light use rather than neglect, though prolonged standing between short journeys can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop unseen. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. The MOT record flags no structural rust, suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear, but the tester only records visible defects at the time of test. Given the low mileage and likely periods of inactivity, check for surface corrosion on subframes, degraded tyres from age rather than tread loss, and any binding calipers caused by disuse. The absence of recurring advisories points to a previous owner who kept the car to a basic but sufficient standard. Verify service history independently, as the MOT alone confirms legal roadworthiness, not mechanical conditioning of the drivetrain or intermittent faults.
