2016 BMW 120 2.0L Diesel · KW65 VEA

The vehicle is presently roadworthy, having been recorded as passed on 5 March 2026 after a near‑side front headlamp defect was corrected; the pattern of MOT results shows a stable trend, with only occasional minor issues and no recurring structural or safety‑critical failures. At 75,013 miles the car averages roughly 7,500 miles per year, a mileage level typical for a ten‑year‑old 120 series. The log shows a steady increase: 34,541 mi in March 2020, 43,544 mi in March 2021, 55,515 mi in May 2022, 64,156 mi in September 2023, 68,447 mi in December 2024 and 75,013 mi in March 2026. No large gaps or sudden spikes appear, suggesting consistent use rather than prolonged storage or aggressive mileage accumulation. A prospective buyer should verify that both near‑side and off‑side headlamps operate correctly and are properly aimed, given the headlamp failures recorded in 2020 and the recent 2026 defect. Inspect the off‑side rear tyre for tread depth and edge wear, as the 2020 MOT flagged the tyre close to the legal limit. A visual check of suspension bushings, coil springs, brake discs and pads is advisable to confirm that no hidden wear has developed since the last pass. Finally, a brief examination for surface corrosion or rust will ensure that the vehicle’s structural integrity remains uncompromised.
