2013 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Diesel · MX13 WCN

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following a pass at 187,380 miles on 28 February 2026, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, though a failure logged on 10 February 2026 at 186,980 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or unclassified rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior passes in September 2024, February 2023, and January 2022 all returned clean sheets with no advisories. Mileage stands at 187,380 against a 2013 registration, equating to roughly 14,400 miles per year and placing this BMW above typical use for its age. The record shows 152,368 miles in February 2023, rising to 171,536 by September 2024, then jumping to 186,980 by February 2026. That spread reflects steady annual accumulation with no standing periods or abrupt gaps. The sparse five-entry history offers little granularity, yet the absence of advisories across every test suggests consumables were addressed before each examination. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high mileage and thirteen-year age. The clean MOT record does not exempt the car from worn trailing arm mounts or corroding subframes common to this chassis at distance. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and structural underbody sections for rust, as testers issued no advisories to confirm those areas were sound. The February 2026 failure with zero defects warrants scrutiny of the VOSA refusal reason, since the subsequent pass implies the issue was resolved or clerical. Previous owners kept the test record clear, but the high mileages mean drivetrain and gearbox wear fall outside MOT scope and remain unverified.
