2016 BMW 118 1.6L Petrol · GY65 VGJ

The 2016 BMW 118, recorded at 89,613 miles, was declared roadworthy in the January 29 2026 MOT, with no defects noted. The test confirmed a clean record, indicating a stable maintenance trend with no evidence of recurring faults. The mileage shows an average annual increase of roughly 8,961 miles, consistent with the vehicle's ten‑year age. The interval between the 2023 test at 70,121 miles and the 2024 test at 76,310 miles represents a 6,189‑mile rise over twelve months, a pace that aligns with normal usage rather than accelerated wear. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or excessive play, inspect the brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear, and look for structural rust on the chassis, wheel arches and underbody. Although the MOT history records no failures, these components are prone to gradual deterioration that may not be captured in a pass. The regular three‑month testing schedule suggests attentive ownership, yet the absence of recorded advisories does not guarantee the absence of wear; a thorough physical inspection remains essential before purchase.
