2020 BMW X7 3.0L Diesel · PF20 DFG

The most recent MOT from June 2025 was a pass, but it follows a failure just two days prior. There is a persistent and recurring pattern of tyre-related defects. While the 2025 failure was serious, involving rear tyres with exposed cords, the subsequent pass still noted that the front tyres are worn on the edges. The condition trend regarding tyres is worsening. The vehicle went from having no recorded defects in 2023 to showing edge wear on the rear tyres in 2024, followed by the critical failure in 2025. The fact that the front tyres are now exhibiting edge wear suggests that the root cause of the uneven tyre degradation has not been fully resolved. The recorded mileage of 22,877 is quite low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,813 miles per year. While lower mileage generally implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, this specific pattern of tyre wear could suggest the vehicle is used for short, infrequent trips or has experienced periods of standing still, which can sometimes impact tyre health and alignment. A buyer should first inspect the condition of all four tyres, looking closely for any uneven wear or bulging. It is also vital to check the wheel alignment and inspect the suspension components to ensure there is no underlying mechanical issue causing the recurring tyre wear.
