2014 BMW 428 2.0L Petrol · M3 KAK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 with 35,630 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. While the 2025 test failed due to a cut in the nearside front tyre, the issue was rectified immediately to achieve a pass just five miles later. No structural or serious mechanical defects were recorded in the latest inspection. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per year. Between the 2022 test at 23,706 miles and the 2025 test at 35,630 miles, the car covered 11,924 miles. This low usage suggests minimal wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it increases the risk of component degradation such as perished rubber, seized sensors, or brake corrosion which can suffer from age and long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their inspection on the braking system, as the record shows thin front brake pads in both September 2023 and 2024. Despite the low mileage, the pads are reaching the end of their life faster than expected for a low-use car, potentially indicating sticky calipers or uneven wear. Given the vehicle's age, a physical check of the suspension bushes and sidewalls is essential, as these components often crack or corrode over time regardless of the distance driven.
