2006 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Diesel · LS06 HMZ

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 181,224 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run of annual certificates since September 2022. Annual mileage averages around 9,000 miles, consistent with typical use for a 2006 model. The record shows 162,886 miles at the September 2022 test, rising to 168,716 by September 2023, 175,206 by September 2024, and 181,224 by September 2025. A failed test on 19 September 2023 at 168,715 miles was followed one day later by a pass at 168,716 miles with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or retest correction rather than a substantive repair. The history is sparse and clean, with no advisories or worn consumables flagged across the five entries. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and subframe corrosion given the car's twenty-year age and 181,224 miles. The MOT record shows no recurring faults, so no specific mechanical weakness is evidenced by the data. Previous owners appear to have kept basic statutory testing current, though absence of advisories at this mileage does not confirm component condition.
