2015 BMW 220 2.0L Diesel · WM65 HSX

Based on the DVSA records, the 2015 BMW 220 presents a stable and generally improving maintenance trend, culminating in a fully clean pass on 28 March 2025 at 124,492 miles. The most recent test recorded zero defects, which is a strong indicator of current roadworthiness. This clean bill of health follows a period where minor suspension wear and a malfunction indicator lamp fault were flagged and subsequently resolved, suggesting the previous owner addressed these issues promptly rather than allowing them to deteriorate. The vehicle has covered 124,492 miles over roughly eleven years, averaging approximately 11,317 miles per year, which is typical for its age. Mileage accumulation appears steady, with no suspiciously large annual jumps or prolonged gaps in the testing record. The 7,578-mile increase between the January 2022 test at 104,601 miles and the April 2023 test at 110,761 miles is consistent with regular use. The record is complete and unbroken, providing a reliable chronological picture of the car's mechanical condition. A buyer should still inspect the front suspension closely, as the 2024 test flagged worn inner suspension arm pins or bushes on both sides, and the January 2022 test noted front wishbone rear bushes starting to split. Although these advisories did not result in failure, suspension wear on a BMW of this age and mileage is common and can accelerate if neglected. Check the condition of the rear brake discs, which were noted as corroded on the inner face in January 2022, and verify the engine MIL functions correctly, given the inoperative lamp fault recorded at the April 2023 failure. The nearside front tyre was described as barely legal on the day of the January 2022 test, so inspect tyre age and wear patterns carefully. Finally, while the windscreen crack noted in 2022 was deemed not to affect the driver's view, confirm it has not spread, as this could cause a future failure.
