2020 BMW 5 Series 2.0L Petrol · V7 DRU

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until June 2027, following a pass on 25 June 2026 at 36,077 miles. While the car remains roadworthy, the maintenance trend indicates a persistent failure to address recurring tyre and braking issues. The repeated appearance of tyre wear advisories suggests a potential underlying alignment or suspension geometry fault that has been ignored across three consecutive annual inspections. The recorded mileage of 36,077 over a six-year period aligns with typical usage patterns for this class of vehicle. The accumulation of roughly 6,000 miles per year suggests consistent, light-duty operation rather than long-term storage or excessive motorway commuting. The history shows a clear increase in component wear starting in February 2024, marking a transition from a clean bill of health in 2023 to a pattern of degradation in the braking and tyre systems. Prospective buyers must prioritise a physical inspection of the front brake discs and pads, as the 2025 failure record noted pitting and fluctuating service brake performance. Even if these components were replaced, the recurring near-side rear tyre wear points to a possible tracking issue or worn suspension bushes that may require professional adjustment. Check the inner edges of all tyres for uneven wear patterns that often signal a need for a four-wheel alignment, and verify that the front brake discs show no signs of heat scoring or heavy corrosion from periods of inactivity.
