2020 BMW 420 2.0L Diesel · RJ20 ATN

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT test on July 10 2025 at 41,470 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the vehicle suffered a minor failure just one day prior due to a deep cut in the nearside front tyre. The fact that this defect was rectified immediately suggests the owner is responsive to safety-critical failures, as the car passed the subsequent test without any recorded defects or advisories. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between the July 2023 test at 29,504 miles and the July 2024 test at 34,904 miles, the car covered 5,400 miles, which is slightly below the annual average. The subsequent 6,566 miles recorded in the following year indicates a steady, predictable usage pattern that typically reduces the likelihood of premature degradation on rubber-based components and suspension systems. A buyer should inspect the wheel alignment and suspension geometry during a physical inspection. The July 2023 test flagged a nearside rear tyre worn to the legal limit and showing signs of edge wear, which often indicates a misalignment issue or worn control arm bushes. While the 2025 failure was isolated to physical impact damage, the history of tyre-related issues warrants a check for uneven wear across all remaining tyres to ensure the drivetrain components are not causing premature scrubbing.
