2013 BMW 520D M Sport Auto 2.0L Diesel · SFZ 6006

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 4 April 2025 at 178,245 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to this, the September 2023 test at 160,574 miles and the August 2022 test at 139,077 miles also passed cleanly. The record shows no recurring advisories or progressive mechanical deterioration across the examined period. At approximately 13 years old, the car has covered 178,245 miles, averaging roughly 13,711 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained motorway or business use rather than occasional local running. The mileage jumped from 135,522 in May 2022 to 160,574 by September 2023, a gain of over 25,000 miles in sixteen months. A notable gap exists between the 2023 and 2025 tests, with the next recorded examination arriving seven months later than the prior annual cycle. The two failed tests in 2022 at 135,522 and 137,659 miles recorded no defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults, and the owner subsequently secured passes without listed rectifications. Given the sparse history with no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion entries, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underside rust given the high mileage and age. The N57 diesel drivetrain and automatic transmission will have absorbed substantial load; verify service records for turbo, EGR, and gearbox fluid intervals. Tyre tread, wiper blades, and consumable wear remain unmentioned but warrant physical checks before purchase.
