2013 BMW 528 2.0L Petrol · RO63 JNJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 12 June 2026 at 64,129 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record indicates a shift from perfect passes to emerging consumable wear issues. While the latest test flagged a damaged nearside front tyre with both a cut and surface perishing, these are minor defects that do not suggest immediate mechanical failure but do require attention to detail compared to previous years. The mileage profile is notably low for a 13-year-old BMW, averaging approximately 4,933 miles per year. Data shows consistent, low-interval usage, moving from 51,156 miles in June 2022 to 64,129 miles in June 2026. This low annual mileage often reduces the mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine, but the long periods between tests can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, which aligns with the perishing tyre noted in the 2026 inspection. A buyer should focus specifically on the front geometry and braking system. The June 2025 test noted front tyres wearing on the outer edges, which typically points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Additionally, the tester flagged pitted and scored front brake discs on both sides in 2025; while these did not cause a failure, they indicate surface rust or age-related corrosion common in low-use vehicles. Because the engine cover and under trays obstructed full inspection during several recent tests, a physical check of the undercarriage is necessary to ensure no hidden fluid leaks or structural corrosion are present beneath the plasticwork.
