2014 BMW 3 Series 2.0L Diesel · WA04 ALF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 February 2026 at 114,153 miles. The maintenance trend has shifted from a clean record to one showing neglect of basic consumables. While the car passed without defects in February 2026, it only did so after a failure two days prior on 3 February 2026. That failure highlighted a snapped washer jet pipe and two damaged tyres, including an offside rear tyre with exposed ply or cords. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 9,513 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between January 2023 and January 2025, where the odometer rose from 74,075 to 100,945 miles. The most recent interval shows a further 13,208 miles added in just over a year, suggesting the car is currently in a period of heavier use. A buyer should scrutinize the tyre condition and wheel alignment. The failure on 3 February 2026 regarding sidewall damage and exposed cords, combined with a near-legal tyre flagged on 7 January 2025, suggests the previous owner ignored tyre wear until it became a legal failure. This pattern of neglecting rubber components often correlates with skipped service intervals. The brake system requires a physical check. The 7 January 2025 test noted fluctuating service brakes at both the front and rear. While these were not excessive enough to trigger a failure at 100,945 miles, fluctuating brakes can indicate early signs of binding calipers or warped discs. Given the current mileage of 114,153, these components should be inspected for uneven wear or overheating.
