2017 BMW 2 Series 3.0L Petrol · LS67 DHD

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward minor mechanical defects. The most recent test in September 2025 at 45,473 miles identified a failure for a slightly distorted nearside rear road wheel. This follows a clean record from September 2024, suggesting that while the vehicle was previously in good condition, it has recently encountered impact-related or manufacturing defects that require attention. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,053 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between July 2022 at 28,790 miles and July 2024 at 37,519 miles, where the car covered under 9,000 miles in two years. This low annual mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking components, but it can also lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must physically inspect the tyres and wheels as the history indicates a pattern of neglect. The July 2024 test flagged three tyres near the legal limit and two showing signs of perishing or cracking. This suggests that despite the low mileage, the rubber compound is aging poorly. Furthermore, the distorted nearside rear wheel noted in 2025 warrants a close inspection for vibrations at high speeds and to ensure the impact has not caused secondary damage to the wheel hub, suspension geometry, or control arm.
