2017 BMW 218 1.5L Petrol · G6 RWG

The vehicle demonstrates a highly stable and positive maintenance trajectory. Since the failure in September 2020, the car has achieved five consecutive clean passes with zero recorded defects or advisories. The most recent test conducted on 19 September 2025 at 72,401 miles confirms the vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition, suggesting a disciplined approach to preventative maintenance by the current keeper. The recorded mileage of 72,401 over nine years averages approximately 8,045 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this class. The history shows consistent annual testing intervals, with the exception of the 2020 extension period. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last five years indicates that the owner has likely addressed consumable items such as tyres and brake components before they reached the threshold of an MOT failure, reflecting a diligent ownership profile. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking systems, as these components now face the standard wear associated with the 70,000-mile mark. While the MOT history is clean, the BMW 2 Series platform often requires scrutiny of the front wishbone bushes and potential weeping from the rear shock absorbers at this stage of its service life. Check the inner edges of the front tyres for uneven wear patterns, as the 2020 failure specifically highlighted structural damage to the sidewall cords. Ensure the electronic parking brake engages and releases without hesitation, and verify that the service history documentation supports the clean MOT record with evidence of regular fluid and filter changes.
