2015 BMW 118 2.0L Diesel · PO11 LAR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on August 22, 2025, at 60,270 miles. The maintenance trend appears reactive, as evidenced by a failure just one day prior due to a damaged offside front tyre reaching the cords. While the immediate safety defect was rectified, the history indicates a consistent pattern of deferred maintenance rather than proactive servicing, with components being addressed only when they reach the point of failure during annual testing intervals. At 11 years old, the recorded 60,270 miles represent a low annual average of approximately 5,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns with a gap of roughly 5,700 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 3,234 miles between 2024 and 2025. This low mileage often leads to age degradation of rubber-based components and corrosion on metal surfaces, which aligns with the recurring brake issues noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as records from August 2023 and August 2024 both flagged thin front brake pads and scored or pitted discs on both sides. The persistence of these issues suggests the previous owner may have only replaced pads without addressing the rotors, or vice-versa. The distorted offside rear road wheel noted in 2023 should be checked for vibrations or uneven tyre wear at high speeds, as it was not explicitly cleared in subsequent passes, implying it may remain or was overlooked.
