2021 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · GX71 OUU

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a remarkably clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 03 September 2025 at 41,460 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed any mechanical or safety concerns before they could trigger a DVSA failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. Between the September 2024 test at 26,997 miles and the September 2025 test, the car covered 14,463 miles. This specific annual interval suggests regular road use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for the health of seals, rubber components, and brake assemblies that can suffer from seizing on low-use vehicles. Since the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion, brake failures, or suspension defects, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear that the MOT does not cover. A buyer should verify the condition of the tyre treads for uneven wear and check the brake discs for signs of thinning or heavy scoring. Given the relatively low mileage, the inspector should also examine the suspension bushings and bushings for any leaks to ensure the vehicle remains as tight as the paperwork suggests.
