2008 BMW 3 Series 3.0L Diesel · TL02 CHL

The roadworthiness status of this BMW 3 Series is currently unverified for the immediate period, as the most recent recorded MOT test occurred on September 2nd 2022 at an unspecified mileage resulting in a pass with zero defects. The complete absence of any test history for nearly four years relative to today in August 2026 represents a critical gap in the official DVSA data, leaving the current mechanical condition entirely unknown. The vehicle accumulates mileage at an average rate of roughly 6,745 miles per year across its eighteen-year lifespan, reaching a recorded 121,413 miles at the time of writing. While this yearly average sits comfortably within typical parameters for a petrol or diesel executive saloon of this era, the sparse dataset prevents any precise tracking of odometer progression between tests. The cleanliness of the 2021 and 2022 test certificates indicates that previous custodians addressed basic roadworthiness requirements prior to presentation, though clean passes do not rule out latent mechanical degradation during extended periods of disuse. A prospective buyer must conduct a rigorous physical inspection to compensate for the missing historical records, focusing heavily on suspension bushes, coil springs, and damper leaks common to the E90 chassis. The braking system requires careful scrutiny of disc wear, pad thickness, and caliper movement to ensure components are not seizing from age or standing. Subframe corrosion and fluid leaks around the engine and differential must also be evaluated on a ramp before any purchase agreement is finalized.
