2015 BMW 320D M Sport Auto 2.0L Diesel · RF15 RHA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its clean history following a minor mechanical failure. The most recent MOT test conducted in December 2022 at 70,838 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at that time. Since that last inspection took place over three years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for an annual test to verify its continued mechanical condition. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-average annual usage, averaging approximately 6,440 miles per year over its eleven-year life. There is a significant gap between the December 2020 test at 32,735 miles and the February 2022 test at 57,456 miles, where the vehicle covered nearly 25,000 miles in just fourteen months. This burst of activity likely accounts for the higher wear noted during that period, though the subsequent clean pass suggests the vehicle was well-maintained during this high-use interval. A buyer should pay specific attention to the braking system given the December 2020 failure at 32,724 miles where the car failed for poor parking brake efficiency and noisy rear shoes. While these issues were rectified to achieve passing, a physical inspection should confirm the handbrake mechanism remains effective and is not binding or requiring excessive adjustment. The previous failure for worn front tyres on the edges also suggests potential alignment issues or suspension bushing wear, which should be verified by checking the current tyre wear patterns and inspecting the suspension components for play or deterioration.
