2021 BMW 520D SE Mhev Auto 2.0L Electric diesel · HT21 FPZ

The 13 February 2026 MOT at 55,609 miles passed, confirming current roadworthiness, and the preceding 10 February 2026 failure that recorded the same mileage shows the vehicle’s condition has improved after remedial work. Mileage has risen from 30,357 miles in the 22 February 2024 test to 42,610 miles in the 26 February 2025 test, an increase of 12,253 miles in one year, and then to 55,609 miles by February 2026, averaging about 11,122 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a five‑year‑old vehicle and shows no extended periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the near‑side rear tyre for the reported cut, verify the depth of the tread on all tyres, and examine the rear prop shaft flexible coupling for signs of deterioration; the recurring tyre defect and coupling wear suggest possible impact damage or neglected maintenance. Inspection of the rear suspension bushes, coil springs and brake assemblies is essential to detect binding calipers, worn discs or excessive play, while a review of the engine management system should confirm that the MIL fault has been fully resolved. Finally, a visual check for structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches and verification of exhaust emission levels complete the due‑diligence assessment.
