2014 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · DV64 AEC

This vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 25 September 2025 at 58,990 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a twelve year old car, averaging roughly 4,916 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last few years, growing from 44,724 miles in September 2022 to 58,990 miles by September 2025. This suggests light, regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which typically reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber seals. The absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion over the last four tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age. While the record is clean, the low mileage means the car may have spent more time stationary than driven. A buyer should personally verify the condition of the tyres and brake fluid, as these consumables can degrade over time regardless of the low odometer reading. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 24 September 2024 at 53,618 miles. Since no specific defects were listed for this failure, it likely related to a minor administrative error or a quick-fix item. Given the lack of structural or mechanical warnings in the history, a physical inspection should focus on confirming the absence of underbody corrosion and ensuring the engine has been serviced regularly despite the low annual mileage.
