2016 BMW 520 2.0L Diesel · RH15 AAC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 11 May 2026 at 95,392 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean result follows four consecutive clean passes since 2022, indicating that the owner has proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they escalated into MOT failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a decade-old luxury executive saloon, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 74,115 miles and September 2024 at 90,119 miles, the car covered 16,004 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. The recent interval of 400 miles between the September 2025 and May 2026 tests suggests the vehicle is currently being driven regularly, which helps prevent issues like seal degradation or fluid breakdown often associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults regarding structural corrosion or binding brakes, a buyer should still focus their physical inspection on common wear items for this BMW model at this mileage. At 95,000 miles, the suspension bushings and coil springs often show signs of fatigue that an MOT test might not catch until they actually fail. The lack of advisories in the record suggests the vehicle has not suffered from neglect or deferred maintenance, but a physical check of the tyre condition and brake disc thickness remains necessary to confirm the state of these consumables.
