2014 BMW 520 2.0L Diesel · KN64 VMK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data. The latest-test test conducted in January 2024 at 134,542 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car has maintained a high standard of compliance following previous issues. This follows a clean result from December 2022, suggesting that the current ownership has proactively addressed any mechanical concerns that may have surfaced earlier in the service history. At 134,542 miles over twelve years, the car has averaged approximately 11,200 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for an executive saloon of this age. The data shows a consistent usage history, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between June 2019 and December 2020, and another 6,400 miles between December 2020 and January 2022. While there is a slight gap in testing frequency between the January 2022 and December 2022 tests, the overall accumulation of mileage indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation that often lead to seal degradation or brake fluid moisture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and tyre alignment, given the test in January 2022 which flagged three tyres as being worn close to the legal limit on the edges. This specific fault often points to misaligned geometry or worn suspension bushes. While the vehicle has passed its two subsequent tests without defect, it is vital to verify the current condition of the control arms and shock absorbers to ensure no uneven wear persists. Given the mileage, a thorough check of the brake system and the structural integrity of the chassis is also advised to confirm no hidden corrosion has developed since the last MOT.
