2018 BMW 320 2.0L Diesel · PL18 FBG

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT status following a pass on 6 March 2026 at 68,256 miles. The maintenance trend shows a recent decline in consumable upkeep, specifically regarding tyre management. While the vehicle passed without defects in 2025, the most recent test flagged an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit with uneven outer edge wear. This indicates a shift from the clean records seen in previous years toward more frequent issues with tyre condition. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 8,500 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, moving from 32,514 miles in July 2021 to 68,256 miles in March 2026. There are no significant gaps in usage or periods of prolonged inactivity evident in the data. The progression from 40,248 miles in March 2023 to 49,858 miles in February 2024, and subsequently to 58,880 miles in March 2025, suggests a predictable and regular driving pattern. A buyer should pay close attention to the wheel alignment and suspension geometry. The MOT history reveals a recurring pattern of uneven tyre wear. The July 2021 test flagged both rear tyres, the February 2024 test identified three tyres with edge wear, and the March 2026 test noted offside front edge wear. This repetition suggests underlying issues such as worn suspension bushes, misaligned camber, or faulty tracking that have not been fully rectified. Beyond the tyres, the lack of recorded defects regarding brakes, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity is positive. However, the consistent tyre advisories imply that while the mechanical components may be sound, the vehicle's running gear requires a thorough inspection. I recommend a professional check of the steering components and suspension linkages to ensure the uneven wear is not caused by more significant mechanical play.
