2009 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Petrol · G28 JBS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a stable maintenance trend evidenced by consecutive MOT passes from 2023 to 2026. The most recent test on 2026-03-17 at 127,672 miles recorded no defects, confirming compliance with safety standards. Previous tests from 2025-02-26 (123,038 miles) and 2024-03-04 (116,071 miles) also showed no issues, indicating consistent upkeep. A single failed test on 2023-02-06 at 107,351 miles is noted, though no defects were recorded, suggesting either a procedural error or a minor non-compliance not requiring immediate repair. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging ~7,510 miles annually. The interval between 2023-02-06 (107,351 miles) and 2024-03-04 (116,071 miles) shows a 9,000-mile increase over 13 months, which is reasonable for occasional use. Subsequent tests at 123,038 miles (2025-02-26) and 127,672 miles (2026-03-17) reflect steady, predictable mileage growth. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, supporting the conclusion of consistent, low-risk operation. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and body seams, as corrosion can develop in older models. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, may show wear given the age, though no issues were flagged in MOT records. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be inspected for binding or uneven wear, as these can arise from prolonged use. The failed 2023 test, despite no recorded defects, warrants scrutiny to confirm whether it relates to emissions or procedural oversight. Overall, the MOT history suggests a well-maintained vehicle, but physical inspection is advised to confirm condition.
