2018 BMW 330 2.0L Hybrid electric · FH67 OFM

The 2018 BMW 330 is currently roadworthy following its most recent MOT on 2026-01-09, but the maintenance trend shows a worsening pattern in recent years. While the vehicle passed in January 2026, it had previously failed in January 2025 due to a seized headlamp levelling device and continued brake wear issues. The recurring brake pad and disc wear, along with binding rear brakes, indicate that brake system maintenance has been inconsistent, and the vehicle may require significant brake work in the near future. The mileage progression shows a steady annual increase of approximately 8,000 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. However, there is a notable gap between the January 2024 test and the January 2025 test, during which the mileage increased by over 6,000 miles. This suggests either a period of infrequent use or a potential issue with the odometer. The 2024 MOT was clean, but the subsequent failure in January 2025 and the continued brake wear in the 2026 test indicate that the vehicle may not have been driven regularly or maintained proactively. Buyers should conduct a thorough inspection of the brake system, particularly the front and rear pads and discs, as these components have shown progressive wear. The binding rear brakes and steering rack play noted in the 2025 test suggest potential suspension or steering issues that may require attention. Additionally, the cut on the nearside rear tyre in 2024 and the worn front tyres in 2026 highlight the importance of checking for uneven wear and structural integrity in the suspension and wheel alignment.
