2004 BMW M3 3.2L Petrol · M3 PFV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2026-05-05 showing a pass. However, the same test also recorded a failure for the windscreen washer not working, indicating a minor but recurring issue that may require attention. Previous tests show a pattern of minor tyre wear and brake-related advisories, which have remained consistent over time rather than worsening. The absence of serious defects in the latest test suggests the maintenance trend is stable, though some non-critical issues persist. The mileage of 95,547 miles at 22 years old equates to an average of 4,343 miles per year, which is low for the vehicle's age. This suggests either light usage or periods of inactivity, which can affect components like the battery, brakes, and suspension. Notably, the MOT record shows no significant gaps between tests, with annual checks from 2022 to 2026. The only exception is the 2025 test, which recorded tyre wear and brake fluctuations, but these were addressed in subsequent years without further complications. Recurring issues include nearside and offside rear tyres worn close to legal limits, which point to uneven wear or potential suspension misalignment. The brake system has shown fluctuating service brakes, which could indicate binding calipers or worn brake discs. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components for signs of wear. Additionally, the windscreen washer failure highlights the need to check the plumbing and pump for leaks or blockages. Structural integrity appears unaffected, but a thorough visual inspection of the chassis and underbody is recommended to confirm no hidden corrosion.
