2017 BMW 116 1.5L Diesel · GY67 AEX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-10 at 96,455 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-03-04 and 2023-03-17 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent compliance. However, the 2025-02-27 entry shows conflicting outcomes: a ‘PASSED’ and ‘FAILED’ result at identical mileage, raising questions about data accuracy. This inconsistency complicates assessing long-term reliability, though the latest test provides a clear positive indicator. The mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage for the vehicle’s age, averaging ~10,717 miles per year. A notable jump from 74,582 miles (2024-03-04) to 85,418 miles (2025-02-27) suggests accelerated use over 11 months, which could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes or brake discs. The absence of defects in subsequent tests mitigates immediate concerns, but the sparse record between 2023 and 2024—spanning 11,000 miles—limits insight into potential gradual degradation. Buyers should verify the vehicle’s structural integrity and suspension components, as high mileage and occasional rapid accumulation may affect coil springs or bushings. The 2025-02-27 anomaly, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of service history for unrecorded repairs. No brake or exhaust emissions issues were flagged, but a physical inspection should confirm tyre tread depth and corrosion levels, particularly in areas prone to rust. The MOT record lacks critical mechanical faults, but the data inconsistency necessitates cautious evaluation.
