AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The BMW M4 is currently roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 2 February 2026 recorded 88,358 miles and returned a clean pass with no defects. The preceding four tests all passed without fault, indicating a stable and well‑maintained condition over the vehicle’s life. No recurring issues have emerged, and the service pattern suggests consistent care rather than intermittent neglect. Mileage accumulation shows a regular usage profile. Between January 2022 and January 2023 the car gained 11,914 miles, then 11,124 miles to February 2024, followed by a 18,715‑mile increase to February 2025 and a further 14,717 miles to the latest test. The annual mileage hovers around 13,000–19,000 miles, which aligns with typical wear for an eight‑year‑old performance coupe. The test dates cluster each year, so there are no notable gaps in the record that would hide periods of inactivity or excessive use. Even with an unblemished MOT history, a buyer should conduct a hands‑on inspection of key systems. Check the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion, verify pad thickness, and assess the rear‑brake binding condition. Examine suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for cracking or oil leaks. Look for exhaust tailpipe corrosion and any rust spots on the under‑body panels, especially around wheel arches. Tyre tread depth should be measured across the width, and the battery’s terminal condition inspected. Finally, review any service logs to confirm that oil changes, filter replacements, and cooling‑system flushes have been performed at the recommended intervals. This targeted inspection will complement the clean MOT record and reveal any hidden wear that routine testing may have missed.
