2014 BMW 116 1.6L Petrol · SB14 ACX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-04-25 at 125,674 miles, recorded a pass with no defects. Previous tests from 2024-04-26 and 2023-04-21 also passed, though a failed result on the same date as a pass (2024-04-26) at 119,553 miles is anomalous, with no defects noted. Over the past four years, the car has maintained a stable roadworthiness profile, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues identified. The absence of advisories or failures suggests consistent maintenance, though the 2024 failed test raises questions about potential administrative errors or unrecorded concerns. Mileage progression shows steady usage, with 6,316 miles between the 2022-02-15 test (105,952 miles) and 2023-04-21 (113,237 miles), followed by 6,285 miles to 2024-04-26 (119,553 miles), and 6,121 miles to 2025-04-25 (125,674 miles). This pattern aligns with typical annual averages for the vehicle’s age, indicating no prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive wear. The MOT history is largely uneventful, with no signs of escalating issues in brakes, suspension, or emissions. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly given the car’s age, and inspect brake systems for wear, as these are common areas of degradation. The 2024 failed test, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny to confirm whether it reflects a genuine fault or a data inconsistency. Corrosion checks, especially around the chassis and underbody, are advisable, as well as a thorough review of service records to confirm adherence to manufacturer maintenance schedules. The MOT record suggests no immediate risks, but physical inspection remains critical for hidden defects.
