2014 BMW 428 2.0L Petrol · FP64 WKM

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a maintenance trend that appears stable despite some reactive repairs. The most recent test in August 2025 at 105,562 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory regarding a damaged offside lower windscreen. This indicates that the primary mechanical and safety systems currently meet minimum standards, though the history shows a pattern of addressing faults only when they reach failure thresholds. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. Between October 2022 at 86,249 miles and August 2025 at 105,562 miles, the car covered roughly 19,000 miles, suggesting regular annual use. There is no evidence of long periods of standing that would typically lead to seal degradation or fluid contamination, which is beneficial for the health of the engine and drivetrain components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension geometry given the recurring issues in the record. The September 2023 failure due to rear brake pads worn to the wear indicator and a recut nearside rear tyre follows an October 2022 advisory for the same tyre worn on the inner edge. These repeated faults suggest potential alignment issues or sticking brake calipers that may be causing uneven tyre wear. Checking the condition of the suspension bushes and the state of the remaining tyres is essential to ensure that previous wear patterns have not caused deeper mechanical damage.
