2018 BMW 118 1.5L Petrol · SW68 KXB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 5 December 2025 at 23,771 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor defect regarding a defective offside front wiper blade. This represents a consumable failure that does not indicate mechanical or structural decline. Prior to this, the vehicle maintained a clean record for several years, suggesting a history of diligent general upkeep and a lack of significant recurring mechanical faults. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,971 miles per year. The car has covered 23,771 miles since its first registration, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension components. The data shows consistent annual testing intervals, with mileage increases of roughly 3,000 to 4,400 miles between each test from 2021 to 2025. This low usage suggests the vehicle likely sat stationary for extended periods, which can occasionally lead to flat-spotted tyres or the degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on items associated with low-mileage storage. While the MOT record shows no structural rust or brake failures, the tester should check for surface corrosion on brake discs and seized calipers resulting from lack of frequent use. The 2023 entry noted items removed from the driver's view prior to the test, so the interior and dashboard should be checked for any obstructions. Given the low mileage, verifying the condition of the fluids and the integrity of rubber bushings is essential, as these materials age through time regardless of miles driven.
