2022 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · LA22 AOB

The sole MOT record for this 2022 BMW 118i presents a clean, unblemished history. It passed its first test on 7 July 2025 at 37,442 miles with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the vehicle was presented in sound mechanical and structural condition at that time. With only one test entry, there is no trend to assess, but the absence of any flagged issues is a positive starting point for a car of this age. The recorded mileage of 37,442 miles over approximately four years equates to roughly 9,360 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a compact hatchback. The annual accumulation is consistent and suggests regular daily driving rather than prolonged standing or excessive high-mileage use. The single MOT entry shows no mileage discrepancies or suspicious gaps, so the odometer reading appears reliable. Given the sparse MOT data, a prospective buyer should not rely solely on this record. The absence of advisories does not guarantee that consumable items such as brake pads, discs, tyres, or suspension bushes are in good condition after four years and 37,000 miles. A thorough pre-purchase inspection should include checking the service history for evidence of scheduled oil changes and brake fluid flushes, as well as examining the condition of the tyres, brake discs for lipping or scoring, and the front suspension for any play in the lower arms or anti-roll bar links. A test drive is essential to assess brake feel, steering response, and any unusual noises from the drivetrain or suspension.
