2017 BMW X5 2.0L Diesel · OY17 FSL

The 2026‑04‑10 MOT at 116,201 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness, though the near‑side front tyre was noted as worn close to the legal limit (5.2.3 (e)). Apart from this tyre wear, the test recorded no structural, mechanical or emission failures, indicating a stable maintenance record since the previous 2025 test. Mileage has risen steadily from 78,192 miles in February 2020 to 116,201 miles by April 2026, averaging roughly 12,900 miles per year, which is high for a 2017 model. The interval between the 2025‑04‑07 test (111,371 miles) and the 2024‑04‑08 test (104,264 miles) shows a 7,107‑mile increase over 12 months, and the 2023‑04‑03 test (97,511 miles) reflects a 6,753‑mile rise in the preceding year, confirming continuous high‑usage operation with no extended periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, verify that the rear brake calipers are not seized or binding, and examine the condition of the brake discs and pads, given the 2023 advisory on thin rear pads and the 2025 failure of the off‑side rear tyre with exposed cords. Particular attention to tyre tread depth, sidewall integrity and wheel alignment is advisable, as repeated edge wear suggests possible suspension mis‑adjustment. Finally, a visual check for structural rust on the chassis, subframes and exhaust system is recommended to confirm long‑term durability.
