2010 BMW 118 2.0L Diesel · RO60 OOV

The overall roadworthiness status is currently good based on the most recent MOT test of 2026-03-12, which was passed at 81,795 miles with no immediate safety advisories. The maintenance trend appears stable , as the vehicle has passed the MOT multiple times without any recurring safety hazards or structural failures that would indicate an ongoing deterioration. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle is approximately 16 years old with a total of 81,795 recorded miles, averaging roughly 5,112 miles per year. This is a very low mileage for its age class, suggesting that the vehicle has likely experienced minimal wear on consumables and drivetrain components since the initial registration. However, the data is sparse; the test dates are not consecutive, and the mileage is not strictly increasing, which could be due to long periods of standing or light usage rather than significant mechanical degradation. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of the suspension bushings, brake discs, and structural integrity of the chassis. The MOT record indicates that the braking system requires adjustment or repair, with the brake pads wearing thin and the rear brakes showing imbalanced requirements. While the brakes have not failed, the lack of a full brake pad replacement and the presence of oil misting and reduced damping effects in the front shocks suggest that the suspension system may have been neglected or maintained with insufficient force. The rear brakes also show imbalanced requirements, which could indicate that the rear suspension is not properly stiffened or that the rear axle bearings are worn.
