2018 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · MM68 NJE

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance history. The most recent MOT test, conducted in September 2025 at 57,502 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the clean results of the previous four annual inspections. This lack of recorded faults suggests the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that prevents mechanical or structural components from reaching a failure threshold. The mileage pattern is exceptionally consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per annum. Between December 2021 at 25,003 miles and October 2023 at 37,874 miles, the car covered roughly 6,400 miles annually, indicating steady use rather than intermittent neglect. The gap of 9,640 miles between the November 2024 and September 2025 tests shows a slight increase in usage, which is positive for preventing the seal and component degradation associated with long periods of standing. Since the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion, brake failures, or suspension issues, a physical inspection should focus on routine consumable items that fall outside the MOT testing parameters. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for uneven wear, as the tester only checks for thickness if they fail. Given the low mileage, checking for perished cracking in rubber bushes and tyre sidewalls is prudent, as these materials can age regardless of the distance driven.
