2011 BMW 730 3.0L Diesel · MT60 BXY

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement following mechanical repairs. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2025 at 116,128 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed and that the car has maintained a high standard of presentation over the last two testing cycles. The recorded mileage of 116,128 miles over 15 years reflects an average usage of approximately 7,700 miles per annum, which aligns with typical light usage for a luxury saloon of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 8,400 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 9,100 miles in the preceding year. This regular interval suggests the vehicle is used consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which generally helps prevent the degradation of seals and rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front-end suspension geometry. The May 2023 test at 98,577 miles flagged play in both the offside and nearside front suspension arm ball joints, alongside a fractured nearside front coil spring noted just a year prior. While these were rectified to achieve subsequent passes, the nature of these faults suggests the front suspension components are under significant stress. A thorough physical inspection should check for any signs of weeping from dampers or movement in the control arms to ensure the previous repairs remain robust and that no new wear is developing.
