2016 BMW 420 2.0L Diesel · CU66 UPH

The 2016 BMW 420 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 September 2025 at 88,261 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. Annual mileage has tracked close to typical expectations for a ten-year-old vehicle. The tester logged 44,273 miles on 22 September 2021, rising to 56,574 by 17 September 2022, 67,335 on 20 September 2023, 79,409 on 14 September 2024, and 88,261 on 20 September 2025. That equates to roughly 8,800 to 12,000 miles per year with no standing gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA record shows no advisories across any entry, so the history is sparse on flagged wear but equally free of recorded neglect. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car is now past the manufacturer's base warranty and corrosion can develop unseen between tests. The absence of advisories does not certify component life, only that the tester found nothing exceeding legal limits on the day. Given the clean sheet, previous owners appear to have kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumables. Treat the 88,261-mile figure as a point-in-time reading and verify service stamps against the MOT mileages before purchase.
