2014 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · ME57 MOR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a clean and stable maintenance trend over the last several years. In the most recent test on November 2025 at 41,739 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows three years of clean passes from 2022 through 2024, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without recurring failure points. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. Between November 2021 and November 2025, the car covered 17,988 miles, showing a consistent pattern of light usage rather than erratic high-distance commuting. While this low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts or brake seals which are not captured by the MOT alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. The November 2021 test at 23,751 miles flagged a nearside front tyre worn to the limit and unevenly, which suggests a potential alignment issue or suspension bushing wear at that time. Although the subsequent tests were clean, it remains prudent to inspect the current condition of the suspension bushes for cracking or perished, given the low-usage history. Additionally, verify the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on vehicles that sit for long periods without frequent use.
