2020 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · PO20 KUP

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness status, as evidenced by the clean MOT pass recorded on 20 June 2026 at 21,499 miles. The maintenance trend remains stable with no major mechanical failures recorded across the last five tests. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard, avoiding the recurring defects or structural degradation often seen in older models. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between January 2024 at 5,295 miles and January 2025 at 14,265 miles, where the car covered nearly 9,000 miles in a single year. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, the long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts. A buyer should pay specific attention to the condition of the tyres and fluid components. The test on 05 January 2026 at 20,330 miles flagged a nearside rear tyre for cracking or perishing despite passing the subsequent test. Because low mileage often results in dry rot on aged rubber rather than tread wear, a physical inspection of all tyre sidewalls and age is essential. Additionally, the buyer should check the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as vehicles that sit for long periods frequently suffer from brake system sticking.
