2010 BMW 3 Series 2.2L Petrol · ML60 ATN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing results. The most recent inspection on 11 December 2025 at 60,601 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred on 04 December 2024 at 55,132 miles, the vehicle was cleared successfully just one day later, suggesting a minor issue that was immediately rectified rather than chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old BMW, averaging approximately 3,788 miles per year. Data from the December 2022 test at 50,690 miles to the December 2025 test at 60,601 miles shows a steady rate of use with roughly 3,300 miles covered annually during that specific period. This low usage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to high-mileage examples, though long periods of sitting or low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age and inactivity rather than distance. Given the low mileage, check the condition of tyre sidewalls for cracking and inspect suspension bushes which can perish over time regardless of distance driven. Examine the brake calipers for seized pistons or corrosion, as infrequently-used vehicles often suffer from surface rust. While the MOT record shows no advisories for corrosion, a thorough check of the underbody and chassis remains necessary for a vehicle of this manufacturing era to ensure structural integrity remains intact.
