2015 BMW 316 2.0L Diesel · LC64 VFO

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach rather than preventative care. The most recent test in July 2022 at 98,549 miles resulted in a pass following a failure for high nearside headlamp aim and a damaged windscreen. While the car has passed its inspections consistently, the presence of recurring minor defects related to glass and lighting suggests that the owner only addresses issues when they trigger an MOT failure rather than performing routine pre-checks. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 66,663 miles in August 2019 to 98,549 miles in July 2022. However, there is a significant gap in data between the July 2022 test and the current date of June 2026. The vehicle has now gone without a recorded MOT for nearly four years, leaving the current condition of wear items, rubber bushings, and structural integrity entirely unknown. A buyer must specifically inspect the braking system and suspension components, as the 2020 test at 79,268 miles flagged thin pads and pitted, scored discs across both axles. This indicates that components are allowed to run until the end of their functional life. Given the history of tyre damage and sidewall cuts in previous records, a thorough check for uneven tyre wear and alignment issues is essential. Because the vehicle lacks recent testing data, a physical inspection of the underbody corrosion and fluid leaks is required before any purchase.
