Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to recent tyre-
When inspecting this specific BMW, your primary focus should be on the tyres. The 2026 MOT recorded four separate advisories for inner tyre wear across both axles, which can sometimes indicate alignment issues or suspension wear. Ensure all four tyres have significant tread remaining and that the manufacturer's recommended replacement interval hasn't been ignored.
Check the service history specifically for oil changes and diesel engine maintenance, as this 1995cc unit is a high-mileage runner. Given the windscreen damage noted in both 2023 and 2024, check that the glass is currently free of chips or cracks. Negotiate on the price if the tyres require immediate replacement, as the MOT record shows they were near the legal limit in February 2026.
As a Euro 6 diesel, this vehicle is compliant with most UK Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ), which helps control daily driving costs. Fuel economy for the 2.0L diesel engine is typically efficient for long-distance cruising, though costs will vary based on driving style.
Maintenance costs for BMW models tend to be higher than average, particularly regarding tyres and suspension components. Expect higher-than-average insurance groups common for the 4 Series. An estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,800-£2,400.
The most critical area to inspect is the tyre condition and wheel alignment. The 2026 MOT history specifically flagged 'nearside front inner', 'nearside rear', 'offside front inner', and 'offside rear' tyres as being worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edge. This pattern of inner edge wear often points to camber or toe-in issues.
Additionally, inspect the windscreen carefully. While the 2023 and 2024 MOTs recorded damage that did not adversely affect the driver's view, you should ensure any previous damage has been professionally repaired or replaced. Finally, check the suspension components, as 'suspension arm' is a top failure reason for this model aggregate group.
This 2019 silver BMW 420 diesel has covered 75,610 miles since its first registration in January 2019. The MOT history is relatively consistent, showing no major failures, but the most recent test in February 2026 recorded multiple tyre advisories. The vehicle's mileage is higher than the model average of 8,802 miles per year.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 87.5% MOT pass rate, with common failure points being tyres, suspension arms, and registration plates.
