2015 BMW 520 2.0L Diesel · TV55 MCC

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthiness rating of 100 , indicating it is fit for the purpose of private use, provided no further faults are discovered. The maintenance trend is improving overall, with the most recent test on 2025-10-09 showing a passing rating of 141,923 miles. This passes the current test date, suggesting the vehicle has not suffered catastrophic wear since the previous MOT. However, the history reveals a complex pattern of intermittent failures that requires careful inspection. Regarding the mileage accumulation, the vehicle has experienced a significant gap in records, with the most recent test occurring on 2025-10-09. The data shows a substantial increase in miles from the 2022-10-12 test (111,795 miles) to the current date of 141,923 miles, representing a total gain of over 30,000 miles. This rapid accumulation suggests the owner may have been driving more frequently or maintained the car less regularly than usual, leading to higher consumption of brake fluids, oil, and potentially other wear items. The gap between the 2024-10-08 and 2025-10-09 tests indicates that the vehicle has been in service for over two years without a MOT, which is a risk factor for potential future issues. To determine the specific mechanical risks, the buyer must inspect the car for signs of wear and tear on critical components that were flagged in the previous MOT. The record highlights recurring faults in the suspension, specifically nearside road wheels and outer brake pads that have been slightly distorted. These structural issues, combined with the fluctuating brake fluid levels noted in the 2025-10-09 test, suggest that the suspension and braking systems are not in optimal condition. While the brake discs themselves appear to be functional, the distortion of the wheels and the thinness of the pad material indicate that the vehicle may require immediate professional servicing to prevent further damage.
