2010 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · FL10 ACX

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded across five consecutive MOT tests, the most recent of which was conducted on 2026-02-24 at 65,720 miles. All tests resulted in a pass, indicating consistent maintenance and no critical failures. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the car has been well-maintained, with no recurring issues affecting safety or compliance. The mileage of 65,720 miles over 16 years equates to an average of 4,108 miles annually, significantly lower than typical usage. This pattern may reflect infrequent use or extended periods of inactivity, which can lead to component stiffness or fluid degradation. The MOT intervals align closely with annual cycles, with the 2022-02-22 test at 58,220 miles followed by a 2,136-mile increase by 2023-02-22. Such a gradual accumulation suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy wear, though long-term storage risks remain unaddressed in the record. A buyer should physically inspect suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, which may degrade without regular use. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as low mileage can mask hidden issues. The exhaust system and structural integrity also warrant scrutiny, as prolonged inactivity may accelerate rust or fatigue in critical areas. While the MOT history is clean, these elements require hands-on verification to confirm the vehicle’sTrue condition.
