2014 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · GU64 RTO

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status with a maintenance trend showing signs of improvement. The most recent inspection conducted on 19 August 2025 at 80,212 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the issues identified in the previous year have been addressed. This transition from a flagged test to a clean sheet suggests the current owner is taking proactive steps to rectify identified mechanical concerns. The mileage pattern remains consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between September 2024 and August 2025, the car covered 5,390 miles, representing a steady level of use. There is no evidence of long periods of stagnation or rapid mileage accumulation that would stress the drivetrain components. The data shows a regular annual testing interval, which is essential for monitoring the degradation of rubber components and fluid systems despite the relatively low annual mileage. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the cooling system and braking systems. The September 2024 test at 74,822 miles specifically flagged both the nearside and offside rear brake pads along with a coolant leak. While the 2025 test cleared these items, the presence of a coolant leak often indicates aging hoses or a failing water pump which are prone to recurring issues. The buyer should check for any residual dried residue around the engine block and verify that the leak was properly sealed rather than simply topped up.
