2015 BMW 520 2.0L Diesel · FM15 KVG

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently in a failing state, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test conducted on 2026-03-03 at 155,879 miles. This test passed, but the failure occurred before the current date, indicating that the car has not been inspected since approximately 2025-02-26. The maintenance trend appears to be deteriorating, as the failure date was two years prior to the most recent test, suggesting that the vehicle has not undergone adequate servicing since the second failed test. Regarding the mileage pattern, the data is relatively sparse and clean, with only two distinct test dates recorded. This lack of accumulation suggests that the car may have been driven lightly or stood for extended periods between tests, which is generally a positive indicator of low wear accumulation. However, the fact that the most recent test was conducted after the second failure implies that the vehicle has not been serviced since at least 2025, which may have compromised its structural integrity or exposed underlying mechanical weaknesses. Given the recurring faults in the history, a buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to identify specific structural and mechanical risks. The most significant concern is the corrosion of the offside front and rear coil springs, which is a critical failure mode often associated with suspension damage and potential failure points. Additionally, the offside front and rear brake discs show signs of pitting and scoring, which can indicate wear or damage that requires immediate attention to prevent future failure. The lack of a passing test since 2025-02-26 further confirms that the vehicle has not been serviced since at least 2025, necessitating a thorough physical inspection of the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components to assess current condition and determine if repairs are required.
